powershell: using convertfrom-csv

a friend of mine pointed out this really cool cmdlet called convertfrom-csv today.  using it, you can immediately create a PSCustomObject.  pretty cool!  as a practical example, you can dump out repadmin and use the object to work with data any way you see fit.

[96] {D:\temp} > $foo = convertfrom-csv @(repadmin /showrepl * /csv)
[96] {D:\temp} > $foo | gm
