Did you watch my video?
Not quite, Just purchased a powershell book though.
Forget about books. They are old when they hit the shelves. I think I own about... erm... maybe 15 IT books? Most of them are 15-20 years old, some are about programming languages, two are about SharePoint installation and administration.
Essentially everything you need can be found online.

It's more easier to get into using PowerShell if you start out with a task that you do often. And then search online showing examples on how to implement those tasks via PowerShell.

Yeah, there is maybe 5 minutes of PS basics you should read about. Like how it is object based, what are commandlets, etc. Then, dive in. Sure, read more, but not first. Start with... actually doing basic things at the command line in PS.

Morning everyone!

Here, something to play with:
Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_PhysicalMemory | Select-Object Manufacturer,@{Name="Size (GB)"; Expression={[math]::round($_.Capacity/1GB, 2)}},Configuredclockspeed,Banklabel,Devicelocator,Serialnumber | Format-Table -AutoSize
Also works (like many other things in PowerShell) on remote machines
Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_PhysicalMemory -ComputerName xxx | Select-Object Manufacturer,@{Name="Size (GB)"; Expression={[math]::round($_.Capacity/1GB, 2)}},Configuredclockspeed,Banklabel,Devicelocator,Serialnumber | Format-Table -AutoSize

Reminds me of this guy who "demonstrated" ZFS RAID using tons of USB flash drives. Wasn't this video, but something like that:
