Unix/Linux can look like nearly anything you want it to look like. There are GUIs that can make it look nearly exactly like Windows, but I think any *NIX guru will tell you that the power contained in any of these systems stems from the command line. I find that I get the most work done from the command prompt in the text-only portion of the OS, or in a terminal within the GUI.
Hence, it CAN look and feel like windows, but I would suggest that the best description is something like a super-DOS.

what's the point of having loopback when you can just ping your local ip address? for example if my ip is 1.1.1.1, why can't i just do ping 5 1.1.1.1 instead of ping 5 127.0.1.1? it seems to me the only point in having it is for the sake of convenience? (2 Replies)
