After reading "Your Daily Dose of Microsoft"  From slashdot.org these
were the articles that we linked too.

For those people that have to deal with Microsoft at work.  These are
very interesting to read.

For the college that I work for we are getting 140 new computers, and we
clone one drive and give it to the vendor to make all 140 pc the same.
Now with the new office and the new Windows XP that is no longer
possible.  Or if a machine completely dies all we do is clone it back to
it's original state this  is not going to be possible.  So what does M$
expect small IT department  to handle the new registration process?
