Directly *on* the work machines?

No rules specifically against it. Sometimes we prefer it that way.

HOWEVER, we have our My Documents folder redirected to a network share,
and sometimes people put them there, with the following caveats in mind:

If they have a quota, and they're out of quota space, the media files
(MP3s, WMAs, AACs, WMV, etc) are the first to go. Same goes for disk
images (ie ISOs).

If they don't have a quota, and the file server is running out of
storage, the media files are the first to go. Ditto with disk images.

We have explicitly excluded the above mentioned media file types from
our backups. Ditto with disk images. The only exception is *I* have a
share on our file server for ISOs - I back up all my OS and application
install media there.

I'm sure a lot of you find the 2003 R2 and 2008 FSRM (File Server
Resource Manager) REALLY useful ;)
