As one of those enterprise pseudo-sysadmin-scripting-guy, I do agree with the sentiment; and I think the fundamental object-ness of PS was nice and the emphasis on docstrings is nice. However, I still think a python-like syntax would have been miles better. As much as I tried, I just can't get into Powershell -- way too many special characters look awfully "dirty", and $vars give me PHP/Perl-induced PTSD. Deployment is also a bit of a pain.
