Buts its not just the shell, its ps, kill, convert, ffmpeg... do you feel like you can do most stuff you do on linux in PS?

Installing ffmpeg and convert on Windows (without cygwin even) is trivial.

It looks like PowerShell even has kill (as an alias to Stop-Process) and ps (as an alias to Get-Process).

I don't like PowerShell, but I certainly wouldn't be quick to suggest that it is missing features.
