SHORT DESCRIPTION

Describes person and history behind PowerShell.cz.

LONG DESCRIPTION

My name is David Moravec (on the internet, you can find me mostly under my pseudonym – Makovec) and I work as an admin in big international company. My main responsibility is SMS/ConfigMgr administration. I am member of technical team (responsible for infrastructure/site management) and also of distribution team (responsible for all things related to SW distribution). Besides this I like to play with T-SQL so I am a father of most of our reports.

I am using PowerShell since v1 (so I was not touched with it’s early Monad times). As I did some VBScripting before I immediately saw PowerShell as my possible new language to learn. And that’s all because of just one cmdlet: Get-WmiObject. As an SMS admin I saw it’s advantage in compare to my previous tools.

Since that time I use PowerShell as much as possible (mainly to automate my everyday tasks). I started blogging (in Czech language) in September 2008 (first article was named Get-Help). I’m publishing my articles also in Czech TechNet Flash monthly newsletter (since 2009).

With this blog I’ll continue at the point where I stopped my old blog. Mainly will publish articles about SMS/ConfigMgr automation and about my PowerShell findings or scripts.

    Ahoj!

    I tried to add your .mobi ebook on PowerShell (PowerShellP.mobi) to the “My Kindle Content folder of my instance of Kindle For PC, so as to be able to read it there.

    But it disappears as soon as I open the Kindle For PC program. And no, it’s not in my Vista Home Premium “Recycle Bin”. Mysterious! Any conjectures about that?

    I had written, “But it disappears … Any conjectures … ?”

    It turns out my download got cut off at 240 KB. I tried again and pulled in the full 4.4 MB. That file worked well (naturally).
    (No idea why the first download got cut short.)

    I guess Kindle for PC has some sort of self-protective “white blood cell” or “bacteriophage” behavior against invalid .mobi files. Who knew?
