I disagree. CMD can't even do simple things. Sure it can list the files in a directory and write that to a text file, but not much more. I'm exaggerating some, but CMD is so underpowered compared to what you get in any Linux terminal that this isn't a fair comparison.
I'll cede that. So Windows really has no way for the user to do things easily though. There is no middle ground between CMD & Powershell. I think they could fix that by putting in all the Linux commands people care about and make it easier to return the object as text without writing a novel. The aliases are only helpful if they can still pipe like Linux.
