Really? I find Cisco's CLI in IOS to be one of the best out there and 
very intuitive. After years of working on Cisco routers and mostly 
CatOS on Catalyst switches, when I started using IOS on Catalyst 
switches, it made a lot more sense to me (than CatOS did at first) 
and I was able to pick it up very quickly. CatOS makes sense in it's 
own right, but I still prefer IOS. Maybe it's just the years of using 
it that make me feel at home. :)

And that's the switch's or an IOS fault? ;)
