I don't really know why I went for the Z Shell to begin with. Well, thats not quite true, I saw everybody else was doing it and it looks like its kindof in vogue righ now, which is a stupid reason of course. It appears to be way more customizeable that bash also, especially with the community driven "Oh my zsh"

Anyway, I kind of went what is the point? I'm not really going to get any benefit from it. My old two line Bash prompt  with the present working directory on top and a simple large right pointing arrow on the bottom, with git repo status if appropriate, did me just fine.
