First, there is pretty much no decent scripting language available on Windows PowerShell?

  Let me tell you what's wrong with PowerShell - I've been using it for a while (yes, it's much more useful than the regular cmd), BUT it has multiple inconsistencies with the regular windows shell, in particular when it comes to file paths and escaping white spaces & other characters. I've spent ages debugging such issues and trust me, you don't want to repeat this (also, it's slow, doesn't come with ssh or most other unix tools). Other than that, I have yet to meet anyone who knows how to script in powershell. Of course if you want to, go ahead, but from my experience I'm not going to use it for anything too serious.

    Powershell is being used for very serious stuff (IIS, Sharepoint). And you can take advantage of any .NET library.
