This bugged me when I switched from TexLive to MikTex as well,
especially since MikTex is the "recommended" distribution for Windows.
To get around it, I created a batch file named texi2pdf.bat in the
MiKTeX 2.9/miktex/bin directory. It has the single line:
texify --pdf %1
Works like a charm for me, including automatic multiple passes when needed.
