Nice thing on windows is I can open the command line type >bash and I've got vim, ssh, sftp, bash whatever immediately. I still don't use that because other telnet, x-window setups are better for me. I never found out how to be productive in OSX vs what I can do in Windows.

Yes, macOS has a terminal emulator as well.

Open Spotlight, type in "Terminal" and hit return.

Unsure how that magically makes OS X productive. Stuff is just easier and faster on windows or linux. And I’m tired of OS X randomly crashing or freezing. It’s like windows 98 now.

Windows is the slowest of OSes, see http://www.bitsnbites.eu/benchmarking-os-primitives/

Then how does opening the command line in windows magically make it productive? They're just citing a counterpoint.
