Yes, you can still use some of the old commands...although they are hidden and M$ would like for you to think that they did away with them. And if you get stuck you can always use the /help switch or parameter after a command to find info on how to use it like this:
command /help - command = the command you want help with and always add a space between the command and the switch, ;)
