Actually, Actually... just a bit of trivia for those that hate the fact 
that OS X contains a command line.... so did the first incarnation of the 
beloved Classic Mac OS. That's right, the pre-System 1 versions of the 
Mac OS had a command line shell (the shell was pulled from the public 
releases, because Apple just didn't want it there... why... because it 
gave the users too much power, and they wanted to have total control over 
the user experience... anti-big brother INDEED!)

One of these days, I will pull out my System 0.97 install disks... boot 
up one of my 128's and have a looksy to see if that one made it out the 
door with the command line still intact (rumor has it it did... I just 
don't recall it, so I can't say for sure... but then, in 1984 when I got 
my first mac, I was 11, and more interested in playing then paying 
attention to details).
