    I had installed my first Ubuntu and spent way too much time in bash. Now I'm back in Windows but I feel a bit strange. It's like some part of me got separated and lives in that new partition. It constantly craves for installing, configuring, compiling... Damn it's 01:25 am.

    Yeah... It makes you lazy after a while, having that much control right at your fingertips. When i started work on NT systems after years of using various Linux distros, it took me months to get comfortable using Explorer: mousing instead of typing, shift+drag instead of wildcards, temporary files instead of piped commands... GUI skills are like a muscle; use it or lose it.

        So you actually used linux. I don't consider a person using linux unless they use and understand the shell. This is one of the most powerful features of linux.

          My server runs Ubuntu server version - no UI at all. Made it hard work configuring everything, but a fantastic learning experience. The problem is it's so stable - I haven't had to touch it for months (maybe even a year or more) so I've forgotten too much of it.

                            Wow! Me too!! I finally had to make an 'ls.bat' file on my Windows system at work so I could still do my 'ls' and get a 'dir'! Well, I should probably add some routines to parse the '-l', '-a', etc into the dir equivalents...but I haven't had time yet.

                                    The problem is it's so stable - I haven't had to touch it for months (maybe even a year or more) so I've forgotten too much of it.

                                    Sounds a lot like my old Pentium III box with 2003 server on it, running as domain controller, DHCP server, web server, email server, sql server and file server. It's not fast, but it's about as stable as you can get.

                                      Wow! Me too!! I finally had to make an 'ls.bat' file on my Windows system at work so I could still do my 'ls' and get a 'dir'! Well, I should probably add some routines to parse the '-l', '-a', etc into the dir equivalents...but I haven't had time yet.

                                      Awesome! I can dump my 'ls.bat' and use the real deal in a Windows command prompt now, thanks to CoreUtils from the GNUWin32 package! Check it out, yo: http://www.askstudent.com/tips/how-to-use-unixlinux-commands-at-the-windows-command-prompt/[^] It comes with a lot of useful utilities for *nix-heads...but ls particularly will be getting much use on my machine...
