Something basic, but beyond the marketing stuff from Microsoft. A short example of what powershell is, why it's useful, maybe even a collection of links from blogs/articles where people talk about how PS is used.

All I know of PowerShell right now is the basics 😀

Article submitted...Sorry for the delay 😀

A little nervous writing first article for a MAJOR web site, so please don't take it easy on me. Let me know if I can improve on it any.

No worries, and no hurry on this stuff.

I'll likely review it next week and get you feedback.

Steve,

I see that you've locked a couple of the posts that you already have articles for. Any chance you could you lock the others you have articles for just to make things obvious?

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
