I've been using the terminal since forever, it has become second nature to me now. The only time I ever load up graphical applications is to load games or browse the web. And honestly it feels slow as hell, not because the UI or system is physically slow but because so many UIs feel like they get in the way.
Kind of like how Cypher in the matrix says he doesn't even see the code anymore, it's just second nature. It can be hard at first but I rarely make mistakes these days, and when I do, they're usually syntax errors.
