I'm just being facetious 🙂 I have limited PowerShell experience, but when I have used it it's been just fine. Infinitely better than
cmd

@erictgrubaugh PS is really ideal for systems management / admin tasks. you wouldn't build a web site with it, but for any kind of systems automation, it's really the bees knees. now that it runs on linux as well, i have to say i would probably choose powershell over python for systems management scripting of any sort.

i think many people imagine powershell as just a "shell" but it's really so much more than that. i barely ever use it as a shell. it shines when you actually use it to create scripts that need to do real things. 😛
