    Does this seem silly to anyone else.   Microsoft made version of windows and stripped off the GUI to make it small and then someone makes a GUI for the CLI  : )

    They didn't take away the gui, they took away explorer, there's a difference. no gui would mean booting into something that looked like a linux console, and you wouldn't be able to load apps like notepad on the core.
