FWIW, we took on a temp (someone we know who was 'between jobs') to 
do a rollout of XP. He introduced us to Symantec Ghost which seems 
quite a useful tool. I don't think it cost us much, but it's 
certainly been worth whatever we paid for it.

Another (free) tool we don't regret deploying is VNC. Apart from it's 
utility value, watching a department stood round a screen while some 
invisible man works the system sure breaks the monotony ! The best 
bit was the way they stood behind the users chair, just like they 
would if there was a real IT guy sat in person at the computer.
