Yes, if you don't use dotnet and is already used to Unix tooling then it is a tough sell, but otherwise the integration with dotnet is quite good.
Powershell tries to be everything and ends up being too much, badly implemented. I have dabbled in it for Windows/Microsoft specific things (Outlook manipulation) but while you can write a PS script that tries to do something like delete all yesterdays mail with a particular characteristic, in practice it often doesn't work due to the impedence mismatch between COM and PS. I like the idea, I really do, but it's just not as straight up practical as the Unix tools.
