RoadShow

Sample files and links from The Ultimate Event II roadshow

During the roadshow we have done a lot of demos and most of the demos are based of scripts (PowerShell mainly) and we promised make sure that all our attendees could download them, so here they are.

You will find the rest of the scripts here http://www.deploymentresearch.com/Research/tabid/62/EntryId/190/Sample-files-and-links-from-The-Ultimate-Event-II-roadshow.aspx

    • If you just need the number, yes. However, this is one of those commands I just to just get me the number, fast. But if you need to use the count in a script, you are absolutely correct.
