<font face="Lucida Grande" size="3">has anyone looked at this? While I don't see anything it does that Casper Doesn't, it does do one really neat thing. I supports PXE booting. So, you can feasibly have PC clients netboot (or PXE boot as they call it) to it and image Windows or Linux to them. This sounds very interesting for mixed client environments. While, I have not played with it yet, I was curious if anyone on the list has used it with Casper or what not. </font> </p>

<font face="Lucida Grande" size="3">I mean if I could also use one server technology to image all of our Windows clients, that would be kind of neat. You could then have one Xserve do it all. Casper does have some, unsupported, but working tools to image Windows on a Mac. I have used them and they do work. </font> </p>

<font face="Lucida Grande" size="3">I have way too much on my plate to even attempt looking at Deploy Studio, however, if anyone else has tinkered with it, what are your thoughts? I was thinking if possible down the road I may run Deploy studio on my Xserves in each building for netboot and imaging the PCs only, and then keep Casper for the Macs. I really like the auto run data and would not want to give that up.</font> </p>
