There doesn't seem to be a question therein, but I don't think this mailing list is required to only include question-and-response interactions. I value Bryan's comments, especially because it might help unattended users avoid becoming foaming at the mouth image-haters. I know I've started down that path in recent times, and appreciated this counterexample. UIU sounds pretty neat.
My impression from this plus my own experience with both imaging and scripted installs (for want of a better generic description for tools like RIS or unattended), is that either can work beautifully or poorly, depending on needs and skill in setup. In each situation, one should be chosen where it is most appropriate. Some serious effort is involved in automation, but that's the whole point: Ease the long term repetitive and time-consuming pain by putting in the work up front. Pro-active versus reactive blah blah - pretty typical sysadmin rhetoric. Cheers, Greg.
