112 Windows commands. I don't know that this is something I would keep handy because I am too lazy to type all that in every time I wanted to run a program, which is why we have icons in this modern world. If you are a Linux/Unix geek, simply like carpal tunnel, or have a penchant for painful memory overruns (in your head) I can see using this. I don't know who put this up, but it looks like a personal cheat sheet that you could print out and reference on occasion if you need to do something special you can't find easily elsewhere on your PC. I like lists of commands, codes, and other jazz. I suppose this is because it is a type of inro pr0n. I like my information overload alright? Don't knock it man, some people like cats. I happen to not be one of them.

I use windows key + R all the time... icons are gross.... Protip: create a shortcut to a program you use all the time. rename it to something short, like ff for firefox, copy and paste the shortcut in system32, then windows key + R type "ff" enter... done. faster than any icon, and doesnt take up desktop space.

Using the mouse requires MORE work than using the command-line, not less. Using the keyboard is lazy. Using the mouse is slow and hard.

Most *nix commands are only two letters, like ls, mv, cp, ps, etc. If a *nix user has to add options all the time or the command is really long, they just make an alias.
The reason I use a command line interface on Mac OS X is because if I can do it, I can automate it. That is, commands can be stored as a script. Very handy.
