Windows 7 was arguably the last OS they ever made.

This line of thought goes all the way back to NT, and even then IBM would have some comments.

DOS was the last one they built, and they made a really decent GUI for it before they switched to NT.

And they still haven't even finished making PowerShell anywhere near as functional as Bash or any other Linux shell environment.

I don't outright hate PowerShell but it's clearly a hacky afterthought after realizing Linux was eating their lunch in the server space via quick rollouts to thousands of computers at once through Bash scripting.

I find PS pretty great. Probably the best improvement to Windows since going 32-bit.

For sure, it's a vast improvement, but there's still so much you can't do with it.
