I made the mistake of abandoning Linux for Mac after a short try several years ago. I was scared away by the dreaded Terminal and updating and installing programs using Synaptic using a dial up internet connection. I am back to stay with Linux this time. Software Centers are a big improvement over Synaptic for new Linux users.
I have never used a command line on my Mac and cannot remember ever using a command line on Windows PC. I am getting a little more comfortable with using command lines on the Terminal but think being able to use Linux without use of the Terminal would go a long way in winning over new Linux users from Windows and Mac OS.
Maybe a goal for Linux Lite would be to do away with the need to use the Terminal?
