You will be amazed how much you can learn in 1 hour playing arround with command lines.

Is that with or without documentation. I had to use the command line a multitude of times with ubuntu (installed on a comp that was not connected to the net, and therefore could not use the package manager to install stuff). I messed with it for a couple of days, looked at the documentation files, and didnt learn much. That's my one major complaint about open source, documentation often is very hard digest, and when its easy to digest, it often isnt very well organized.
Perhaps you know something that I didnt?
