Powershell in Action! Hank interviews Bruce Payette by MichaelF on February 08, 2007 11:00PM

We get quite a few requests to provide more information about Powershell so Hank and I decided to go straight to the person who just finished writing the book on Powershell:  Powershell in Action, Bruce Payette.  Bruce was one of the founders of the Powershell team here at Microsoft and is an expert on not only Powershell but according to Jeff Snover, on any number of popular and obscure languages.

In this interview Hank and Bruce discuss Powershell and Bruce gives us a demo.  While we couldn't show everything here, if there is interest, we can go back and have Bruce show us specific scenarios and examples.  Let us know if there is anything you'd like to see...

Check out the link above to see Bruce's book and read a couple of sample chapters.

    The link http://www.manning.com/payette/ says that his book costs $44.99 thus ensuring that no techy guy every buys it and at all it will be bought only by cash rich corporates not for reading but for displaying at their reception.

    Sad that such a great technical mind is just a golddigger.

    I have no control over the price of a book.  But I am not sure that if you are technical you would not buy books that are 44.99.   Many of the technical books I have seem to be between 40 and 50. And I have many of them.

    For me the value is based on the content and my return of the information. And that is something we all need to decide for ourselves.

    I'm finally getting a chance to read up on the Microsoft interop news today. It really sucked to see the headlines all day, but not have a chance to read them until now. While the words "open source" are mentioned in the announcement and on Bill Hiff
