Does anyone here use this?
If so, to what extent?

With K12LTSP and Samba I've been able to provide a good stable network 
for Macs/PC's/and thin clients in various labs throughout the school 
with centralized authentication..it's groovy..

Currently I image the XP machines with Ghost...but often mid-year a 
teacher will want software 'XYZ' installed to 'enhance' their curriculum.

I'm hoping WPKG could be the answer to that, but I don't know enough 
about the diff profiles it refers to in the documentation.
