I really only have one small nit with OSX, which is the effort they went to to hide access to things like a shell command line.

Eric Stevens
Agreed

... and now I use Windows!

What's to hide, open the Terminal in a Mac and Unix lovers can go for it, and play with the command line to their heart's content. It is there, a click away for anybody who wants to go that route, and many do. < http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_(OS_X) >

It just adds to what we know Floyd, and I guess you are really not familiar with Macs and OSX. There are all sorts of things you can do with a Mac that have nothing to do with preconceived misconceptions of OSX. < http://www.cultofmac.com/215174/mastering-terminal-to-hack-your-mac-feature/

Tch, tch, tch.

Careful. You are beginning to sound like nospam. :-)

Well, I do favor OSX over Windows machines (& especially Linux). ;-)

A friend of mine sold Apple computers in the distant past

That had to be before OSX came on the scene in 2001. Before that there was quite a bit which could be done using Apple Script from OS7 on, if your pal didn't let you know about that then he failed his Apple employers. < http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Script >

and I kept rejecting his attempts to sell them to me for the simple reason that they didn't have a command line. I would be very happy with the one they have got now, if only they had it then.
