Command line isn't not n00b friendly, just merely a different way of<br>
accessing applications and managing the system. Might sound stupidly<br>
elitist and like 'the cancer that's killing linux audio', but you<br>
can't expect to run and use a linux or any other unix based OS without<br>
using the CLI once or twice IMHO. Whereas windows gives you the<br>
ability to do everything with a mouse and a GUI, linux gives you the<br>
choice of either using a GUI to run the app or launching it via a<br>
terminal.<br>
