There's a ton of ways to use PowerShell. In my previous life as a systems administrator, I have used it for automation tasks like extracting Active Directory users that have passwords that are about to expire and email it to them. It's just one of the examples. In fact, I have been translating a few of my VBScript scripts to PowerShell. What's nice about it is its flexibility and ease of use. Feel free to post any ideas that you may have and we can probably write a tip on how to use PowerShell with it. To start with, check out the Microsoft TechNet site on Windows PowerShell
