I createed a listing of free software to install on laptops. I installed and tested these packages and they all work well. Included are things like Google Earth and OpenOffice.

In Forest Grove, they will configure one laptop with all MS security updates and all the packages they want to install and then make an image of that laptop hard drive.

There are several software packages that will let you do this including Symantec Nortan Ghost, Lan Desk and even a free tool called G4U.
