Add a List of Users to the Local Admins Group

Just a quick update here, and another real-world example of where the Split() method of a string can come in handy for day-to-day tasks.

Today I had to add a list of about 20 individual usernames as administrators to a particular machine. Someone sent me the comma-separated list in an IM, and it took me about ten seconds:

PS> 'user1,user2,user3,user4,user5,user6,user7,user8,user9,user10'.split(',') |

>> %{net localgroup administrators $_ /add}
