Perhaps have the techs laptops run linux, with a VMWare read-only image of their WinXP? That way, every time it's started up it'll be a fresh image, and once in a while you could make a new one and just have them update the laptops via openvpn/ssh or somesuch. Would that work? -- Dan Boger [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [email protected] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
