I will avoid the rant I had just written and simply say that I do not use cmd.exe except where required. I use PowerShell exclusively, which makes cmd.exe look like the ancient tool it is, and there are debates that PowerShell is better than bash due to its use of objects instead of straight text (I suck at regex, so I prefer objects). I will leave that flame war for another day, as I like bash on *nix machines and love PowerShell on Windows. I just don't like to mix the two :).
