"Once upon a time, when DOS walked the earth, the command line was the primary user interface for most of our computers. Then, Windows came along, and Microsoft seemed set on leaving the command prompt to dry up and wither into obscurity. Fortunately, Microsoft has again turned its attention to the command line and, in so doing, has produced one of the most compelling new Windows features eWEEK Labs has ever had the pleasure to test: Windows PowerShell."

ok I'll give an example
let's say you want to delete all files with extension .txt and you type this
rm * .txt
oops forgot I added a space
oops thanks for not telling me I will wipe out all the files and just do it anyway.
Powershell requires confirmation
If you're that careless then turn interactive mode on. Problem solved.
