It works pretty well, and pays the bills for me. I work in the print industry, so Macs are defacto here. It's funny to use the console, and have other Mac users look on in wonder, and ask "What are you doing, there?" Most have never used it, or know what to do with it.
Well that was Apple intention all along to shield an average (I should say wealthy) Joe from Unix. Nothing wrong with making honest living using MACs. In my line of business (Scientific Computing) off and on I get a grad student even a post doc trying to access my infrastructure with fancy Apple laptop. You should see their faces when I open terminal on their beloved MacBook Pros change bash with Korn shell and start writing sed and AWK scripts on the fly to do various things on the remote computing nodes
