Actually with the latest version u really don't need the command line unless u want to get into the guts of it and do some more advanced stuff (same as osx and xp, i use cmd a lot in xp) .
The command line is useful because lots of the faq and howtos are in the form copynpaste the following lines.
When i use ubuntu I try to avoid commandline as I'm trying to get used to the way the distro is used by the average home user.
