Try Powershell, its actually a good shell.

And it defines a lot of aliases so unix people feel somewhat at home

And there is no need to use GNUWin32 or Cygwin or stuff like that, in
fact the Powershell commands are usually faster (e.g. try gnuwin32 rm
-rf on a large Build tree compared to PowerShell's Remove-Item -Recurse
of which rm is an alias).
