Application folders in MDT 2010 + PowerShell

One nice thing with MDT 2010 is the possibility to
make folders in the Application folder.

I like a nice structure of things and with PowerShell
I can make my structure for MDT 2010 Applications,
Operating Systems and Drivers in no time.

cls
$MDTName = "MyMDT"
$MDTServer = "\\padc01"
$MDTApplications = "Antivirus", "Browser", "Office", "Twitter", "Security", "Server"
Add-PSSnapIn Microsoft.BDD.PSSnapIn
New-PSDrive -Name $MDTName -PSProvider MDTProvider -Root $MDTServer\DeploymentShare$
foreach ($MDTApp in $MDTApplications) {
    New-Item -path "$MDTName:\Applications" -enable "True" -Name "$MDTApp Applications"

 -Comments "$MDTApp Applications" -ItemType "folder" -Verbose -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
}

9 lines of code can make 50 folders in 50 sec

And you can make it in less lines!
