Green GUI, Forest for the Trees. . .
"So we're back to the 'native GUI' argument again, eh? Yeah that's the only reason things are the way they are. Leave it to this group to take a nice anniversary deal and flip it into yet another diatribe about how bad off we are.

How many Linux/UNIX admins do you know who use only a GUI to access their systems? LOL Howabout mainframes? Seriously the GUI thing is such a lame argument with so many options out there to code to a browser.
