Re:How To Spend $1 Trillion A Year With Open Sourc (Score 1)

Quoting: "...when would an end-user need to use the command for any of his daily tasks? " Well, everyday! Not exactly the command line, but real world applications running programs emulating VT100 and 3270 terminals in full text mode. Almost any major company (banks, retailers, supermarkets, etc) uses text screen programs. You don't need a Windows, or for that matter, not even a PC, a terminal would do. The thing is that in real life, you run a mix of Windows applications (that off course can be run in Linux at a more lower cost) and many text-based apps. How long will this be the norm? At least 20 more years, by my humble understanding.
