I would have combined 9 and 10 with a "/" delimiter and added (at least) "reg.exe". I mean, most administrators use it much more frequently, and with more urgency, than pathping or repair-bde. Not to discount the value of those two, but there are others that really should be included. I guess I would have probably named that list "10 Windows 7 Commands That Would Be Helpful for Administrators To Know". A little longer obviously, so how about "10 neat-o Windows Commands"?
In any case, I know this doesn't fit the "top 10" format, but maybe a "top 20" would be more suitable? I could've just said to open a CMD console and type "HELP" and press Enter. That will display a summary of CLI commands which are all extremely useful in particular situations. But that would be un-administratively lazy of me, so I picked out ten of them to use for my add-on list. For each command, just enter it with a trailing "/?" or "/help" or "-help" or "-?" (Microsoft is so standardized on the dash-or-slash thing).
