I have a bit versed into powershell over the last months, I just cannot stop discovering new gems.
Ex : Win32 Classes
Self-explanatory examples :
PS> (get-wmiobject win32_processor).currentclockspeed
3292
PS> (get-wmiobject win32_operatingsystem).version
5.1.2600
PS> (get-wmiobject win32_proxy).ProxyServer
proxy.example.com
PS> (get-wmiobject win32_proxy).ProxyPortNumber
8080
it goes on and on and on… the ways those things are accessible from the prompt in interactive command line mode or within a script is amazing me
