One might wonder: what benefits does disabling the command line give? You don't need to disable command line to make something targeted for casual users. Even Windows has command-line prompt. Well I do see the downside: - When users are looking for help with the OS, a lot of expert are going to give them the (IMO) easy to follow: type A in terminal, then type B, then type C. If there is no command-prompt... - When users grow, they may want to use the terminal sooner or later. - It makes the OS not as powerful as it should have been. One positive side: - Some guys are gonna have fun trying to enable the command-line. d: Cheers, -- Chris [email protected] +65 9755 3292 A: Because it fouls the order in which people normally read text.
