Client images; creating, storing & deploying

[klop]

Hi, i'm sure if i spent time (alot!) reading up i could probably figure this out so am feeling dead cheeky and lazy but has anyone any experience of client images and deploying them using server 2008?

 

I'd like to host 4 or 5 images (have a handy empty'ish NAS) and would like to be able to deploy the image to chosen client(s) easily and quickly.

 

Most software in installed via GP so i guess i could just use an fialry clean OS image but would be handy if all drivers (for the correct client), antivirus and some software could be in the image.

 

I've a recently installed XP Pro PC sat here... few more from the same room to do, so would love to be able to re-install across the LAN remotely (and silently?)

 

Thanks for any advice! :-)
