Submitted by abhishek on Fri, 01/30/2009 - 10:43

Need to setup a lab/office with 200+ computers, very tiring job but look if you have machines identical in configuration why are you installing each of them why not install one and replicate it to others this will save a lot of time, But how will i do this??????????
