I can be much more productive using a CLI having several terminals open doing many different tasks, vi for scripting and editing.
I'm responsible for dozens of servers none of which has a GUI attached and all that can be done on a 10 years scrapper running a Linux desktop that uses few resources so I cab browse a few sites and monitoring tools at the same time and run a Win7 VM to access some client tools that are win only.
It's not a pissing contest about which OS is better in my opinion but the best tools for the job that you are comfortable with. It was a delight to find I could run a terminal in OSX with commands I was familiar with.
The WIMP environment has been around for a very long time and can be used in any OS. I'm not saying that that how I prefer to work is better than any other way it just suits me and my skillset.
