User name in virtual machine #22

Initially, we built the virtual machine to define a user named
"speaker"

(though in the process of re-branding from "Speaking *nix" to "Command the
Command Line", I'm thinking of changing this to "speaker".). This was to be the
account used by participants in this workshop. I was afraid that the default
"vagrant" user might suggest some non-existent connection between the Vagrant
project and the environment itself. This confusion seems less likely with a
user name that is clearly customized for the course.

...but as I'm troubleshooting some permissions-related issues, I'm having
second thoughts. Given that Vagrant is itself a formal topic for the
course
,
it might actually be better for participants to get experience with a more
stock configuration.

@tkellen @gnarf @cowboy @MattSurabian @brianloveswords @jennschiffer @reconbot I just
know you will have opinions on this. Mind sharing?

Less custom config = better, and the vagrant user makes sense and kind of reminds you you're on the VM.

I think that speaker is likely to make people think they hacked your account mike ;)

I think just using vagrant would be fine
