If there's an easy way to do something in the GUI, beleive me, the big boys use it. While its nice to have the CLI available, its not for ease of use and actually reduces the overall security of the product, because its very VERY common to CLI errors and not know how to get out of them. We're not going to even look at Exch2007 until they come up with a fully baked user interface. If I wanted to use Linux, I would.

It is far more powerful, faster and all the big boys (*nix) use it. Just try scripting with GUI, not possible! I honestly like the fact that Microsoft is joining the real world with CLI.
