Linux may have command-line power in the bag, but there's something about the simplicity of Windows commands that I've always loved.
While I'll stick with open-source when given the choice, Windows pays my bills. Here are some one-liners that get me through the day. As an IT pro, I like to use the Windows command line as much as possible, as it avoids the "That's it? Hell, I could have done that!" reaction.

Original OS install date
C:\>systeminfo | find "Install Date"
This one's not terribly useful, as most machines have been imaged, and this will keep the image's date. But it can still be good to know if an install is acting wonky.
