And you have many desktop options available to you when your 
needs are so simple.  I spend most of my time at a command line 
too, though I prefer Konsole's tabbed windows over screen for 
local use at this point, but I am not most users, I'm a coder.

For you and me, sure.  (I always install cygwin if I have to use 
a Windows machine for any length of time.)  But again, you and I 
are not most users.
