"We put a ton of thought into how to expose this normally developer-centric concept in a way suitable for system administration and system administrators. We would LOVE to hear your feedback"

Real world examples! TONS of them :) Powershell users (like myself) could benefit from seeing where transactions are the best solution in their everyday life (read: not _only_ SQL). Feed me.

BTW - Why did you implement transaction cmdlet for Registry earlier than one for filesystem?

We implemented this for the Registry mainly because it is a smaller, more self-contained provider.

It's best to introduce a complex concept on a relatively simple data store, rather than a complex concept on a complex data store.

Hi, Thanks Lee.

I was worried because transaction command disappeared when Vista reached RTM.

I'm looking forward to your next introduction which is complex concept on a complex data store!

I see that New-PSDrive takes a useTransaction parameter. How does this compare/contrast with the useTransaction parameter for, say, New-Item?

Not seeing the utility of this at first glance.
