Sysadmins rebel over GUI-free install for Windows Server 2016

What is a picture worth?

If you really want to read a book, and have to type one to do what a few clicks in the GUI can do, install the server core.

But why eliminate what can communicate so much more quickly than anything in endless text can do?

BTW, the GUI tools don't work right on the majority of BrandX desktops out there, so if you're not logging on from a Windows system, you have to have a remote desktop to see what you're doing.

I've always thought this fascination with typing is a self-deceptive phenomenon. You don't really do more by more finger action, you just think you did.
