Yeah, I always stick up for my imaginary friends too. ;)

That's because they're used to Windows which has a completely broken command 
line. I've been using Linux for three years, coming from an entirely Windows 
background and frankly the CLI interface in Linux seemed like a huge step 
forward to me and was something that attracted me to the platform - as an 
ordinary musician who was interested in learning programming. Do you honestly 
_know_ any 'ordinary' creative people? Contradiction in terms IMO. :)
