The built-in commands are aliased, which is probably the most infuriating part; clearly they thought it necessary to name the listing functionality 'Get-ChildItem' and refer to it by that in all the documentation so as not to blow our pretty little sysadmin minds when we discover ls/dir could list more than directories now. Who knew Microsoft was fractal in nature?

Anyway, if you have to suffer PowerShell at least do it in the ISE.
