Anyone who builds or fixes PCs knows what the laborious part of the job is....  the finishing off work, i.e. loading the software & utilities required to keep the PC protected and useable.  It takes hours, and is pretty monotonous.   However there is a really clever utility on NINITE.COM which lets you select the most popular software packages and downloads a script which will auto download and install for you.  Its really good, and lets you forget about the penultimate step.
And finally.... remember to test that it all works......  B-)
