after you use sysprep where do you create the image.  I have Norton Ghost
and have been very disappointed with how it works.  I may be missing
something.  I have tried both USB and LPT to a second computer to store the
image, but I could not store the image on an NTFS partition, the image is
nearly as large as the drive, and it took hours.

I actually found it quicker to just install everything on to the
workstations.  Is Norton Ghost Enterprise better, does Drive Image work
across a Win 2000 domain?
