Of course, the first command that I type in is "rm -rf /"... :P

I think that this is brilliant for those wanting to learn to use the *nix command line in a nice, sandboxed environment.

#1. What is a "Linux" and why would you want to boot it? :P
#2. The first command I would use if this happened to me would be to click on the red box with the white "X" in it at the top right of the screen.
#3. Ruad: Cheers to the king???
