Solution
Graphical user interface is important for the novice users. Linux is mostly used by developers or
guys from computer science background. It is easier to interact with the computer with the help
of GUI. Most of the user's are not familer with the command line interface. Also, to interact
efficiently wee need to remember many commands in the unix. GUI is visually intuitivie hence
most of the new users prefer GUI or windows based operating system over linux operating
system. User can viewe, control, manipulate and toggle through multiple programs. Using mouse
and keyboard it is much easier for novice user to interact with the opearting system.
