I started in linux fairly recently and used the default bash. I'm not really sure what the differences are myself, except...

I did a google search, bash vs csh, to find out (b/c obvously its some type of shell) and my eyes are still blistering from one rant I innocently stumbled across. Apparently csh is the proverbial easy way out short-term-benefit Big Bad, at least according to one person. Now I'm afraid.
