OS X is much less complicated than Windows and in my experience than
OS 9. What you see about log files and the command line are from
people who enjoy the Unix part of the command line.. When the same
situations happen in Windows you call your friendly technician to fix
it. The ones talking about the CLI it are mostly technicians. I have
never "had" to use the terminal. I have played with it a few times
just because I had a spell of geekiness but it wasn't necessary. It
is less problems than my Windows machine at work. By the way I
sometimes miss the old DOS. More stable than Windows and the Mac OS
