Doesn't it show your PC? It should also show the Ethernet devices that are connected with a cable to your router.

I don't have much knowledge of the UK legal system,
and I haven't had the need myself to remove Ubuntu from my dual boot laptop, but I found: ...

Yes, you are right: any computer will do to learn Command Line Linux...
However, the topic starter has a Raspberry Pi and wants to master the command line with it.

IMHO using different Linux...

The Raspberry Pi is not a "normal" computer, meaning that it does not have an Intel processor (i686 and x86-64 architectures) like "normal" computers have.

The Raspberry Pi has an ARM processor...

I had to Google to find out that DosBox = MSDos emulator...

I don't know if it will run on DosBox but a Car game I really enjoyed in the early 90's on MSDos was Death Track.
It's a racing game...

Ah, ok! Thanks for correcting me.

My SheevaPlug has an ARMv5 processor, and the Raspberry Pi ARMv6,
so therefore I am not able to use Ubuntu on those...

In the terminal can't you select some text and use SHIFT + CTRL + C to copy?

Workaround: direct the output to a file, like

top > mytopoutput.txt
and press CTRL + C to stop "top".

Yeah, there isn't a Ubuntu version for ARM processors anymore...
(I have a SheevaPlug with ARM processor which runs on an outdated Ubuntu 9 version which I cannot upgrade to a newer Ubuntu version)....

If you just use Unity, then I wouldn't buy a book.

I heard that there will be an Ubuntu Jam this September 2012, maybe even in my hometown!

Yeah, I saw the documentary "Revolution OS" where people protested against that sort of MS tax.

If you...

You could also use ArchLinuxARM to learn the command line.
However it's not a .deb distribution like Ubuntu/Debian/Mint, so you can't use apt-get etc.
However, IMHO Arch is a good way to learn how...

Maybe there could be a market for that:
cheap laptops that don't need antivirus software or all those commercial software packages.
Or cheap media centers (using XBMC, OpenELEC or Mythbuntu).
