I must have missed this bit when I went through the original the
first time. Here I must disagree. There is no reason why a well
designed operating system should be specifically text-oriented or
graphics-oriented. A simple text interface would let us get the system
running sooner and allow for testing without having to wait for the GUI
to be completed. As long as we know that the text interface is not
going to be the primary user environment, we should be fine.
