I was just wondering since our Enterprise Admin is supposedly raving about it. I'm trying to figure out something for this purpose myself, since our public secured machines are also chock-full of browser plugins, MS Office XP, Mavis Beacon Typing Tutor, a resume program, etc. I'd love to be able to apply patches and new versions of plugins to all 200+ machines without having to recreate a ghosted image each time a change occurs and then have to go apply it everywhere. Our public and staff aren't very understanding when the latest "Lifesavers Football Challenge" Hyperload game doesn't work because there's a new patch they can't install.
