Hi

option?

The Windows must be deployed with Microsoft Office and with the software of
my company. Which is the best option?

It doesn't make any sense to deploy a server version of
Windows to 500 computers. You should be deploying
Windows XP Professional.

Purchase a Volume License version of Windows XP.
You'll need to purchase 500 licenses.
