I would strongly disagree on that one, it is just an unusually well kept secret. Just open a command window in windows and type "cmd /?" and you will get an introduction to a lot of useful features, such as filename completion etc. I run windows 2000 almost exclusively from the commnd line, and it's just about as versatile as the Linux command promp, albeit with slightly different command names. For some odd reasons the commands available are kept in the windows help under the heading "MS-DOS commands" even though DOS is long dead. And if you have loaded the utilities recommended for building R-packages you have almost all you want.
