  I saw that, too.  Declined for now.  Especially given that the docs
say it can't be uninstalled.  That seemed like a red flag to me.

  Is this PowerShell the same PowerShell that ships with later
releases of Windows?  Or is missing functionality because it's for the
older XP?

  The release notes claim it only needs 8 MB on the hard disk.  Does
it have any impact on RAM if you don't use it?  I thought I remembered
reading somewhere that PowerShell was a big resource hog, so I didn't
want to install and discover I've just sacrificed 20 MB of RAM to
something I'll never use.
