We have a nice splash page where we can select everything from the drivers to install, to specific software packages,, all over a DHCP server and using windows boot floppies. Since its doing a direct install,, not an image you can customize your installs pretty indepth through a webpage. Its pretty slick and way faster then CD's. This is only good though if your dealing with alot of similar hardware, so you don't have a million driver listings in it. But for your own PC's it would possibly make for a quick reinstall without having to hover over it :) Swise Hey Juan,

I have found it hard to get people who actually use their computer a lot to just switch, so something like this will really make it easier to get all the stuff I normally install done in one step. I will also "keep" that cd key in mind, because I hate ejecting the cd to get the key. Not sure why my keys are always on the cd, but that is an issue. Keep up the good work Juanita, these tips are quite useful. -Stevo Well even though I use Linux, I often install Windows for people along with Linux.
