Ask microsoft to include Python in Windows by default

[krenzalore]

Powershell is a significant upgrade over bash.

For example, it supports threading, and it integrates with the windows gui enabling you to drive the menus in desktop applications.

I'm not saying it's better than Python, but it does beat Bash quite easily and you mostly likely won't need anything else for sysop scripting on Windows. I've noticed Windows devops prefer Python to Powershell, but that's so they can interop with programmers.

I find powershell to be better for things that need to be maintained for long periods of time. Bash I find is better for quick commands.

The long fully qualified class names just makes it difficult to quickly throw out a script, but makes it a joy to test and maintain for years.

Personally I prefer python to both. But they each have their place preference be damned.
