Really well-structured talk! Learned a few new tricks and appreciated how clearly everything was explained. Great intro to the command line.

Enjoyed the hamlet break in the middle. Bravo.

This talk about the command line needs info about chaining commands and directing output. It's the killer feature of the command line imho and something that can't easily be done in gui land.
