Powershell is basically a scripting language. It is an Object Oriented Programming language and interactive command line shell for Microsoft Windows. This scripting language can be used for various tasks like -

It involves and integrates with .NET environment and can also embed into other applications with ease.

PowerGUI.org gives you a UI based powershell scripting environment with Intellisense that makes scripting more enjoiable rather than seeing a broing blue screen command prompt.

I started using powershell recently and have adapted to it very quickly provided my very less exposure to hard core coding.
I had installed the Powershell Script Editor from PowerGUI.org and wnet through the ebook present in http://powershell.com/ .

With these two in your hand, you are ready to rock and roll POWERSHELL.. Happy Learning... :)
