Create once - roll out many?

I have a standalone cardiology application that need to set up in quite a
few referring physician locations. I would like to configure one machine.
Ghost it and roll out these single workstations.

Each one needs it's own license.

I have an open license agreement already with MS. What do I need to do to
execute this?

Thanks,

David

Use SYSPREP to strip the SIDS out of the image and close the image:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;[LN];838080
Now Ghost the machine to an image.

When you bring the image back up it will run through a mini-setup. In
your SYSPREP.INF file, do NOT provide the product key. During the
mini-setup, it will ask you for the product key. Enter this key in
during the mini-setup process for each computer.

Thanks Adam,

Each of these product keys can be obtained by adding licenses to my Open
license?

Correct...but at 5 or more PCs you can go for volume licensing. Sounds
like that would make your life a lot easier then trying to track which
product key goes with what PC (each PC needs a license regardless of
where you use open, select or enterprise licensing).
