But you can do nearly everything with the GUI in Linux for a while now. The level of stuff you would need to use the terminal for is the same level on Windows you would need the command-line for, or (SHUDDER) the registry.

In fact, I would argue that doing things in Linux via the GUI is easier than even on Windows. I'm speaking as a user of KDE Plasma. I personally dislike Gnome.
