Hello Robert, You are right, that's the main reason why I started the post, to ask for equality and support for the Linux community. Google can do it and has benefited for some years now from the open source community, I believe that most of their servers run on Linux. And I do know that their developers and the company in general support Linux with passion too. Yet, I often see more support for windows and mac as in this case. As Tim said, it is completely necessary to use the terminal for most features, I am just saying that at least Windows and Mac users have the option to chose. A couple of students had appengine up and running in Ubuntu, we looked at how to run the commands and I spent some time after class helping them out to familiarize with the environment and still they opted to move to windows. It is true that we only have 6 classes of appengine and all they care about is doing their project as fast as they can. Before, they had 6 classes of Amazon Web Services and after appengine, 4 classes of Heroku. I am new in the field of teaching, but I can see things from the other side and realize a little bit more about how important it is to give some extra support to the open source community. Thank you both of you for your comments, Regards
