You can set up all the Outlook settings through Group Policy on your domain controller. Then it'll be how you want it.

Microsoft are putting more and more emphasis on centralised management these days. Which makes sysadmin jobs much less tedious.
If you deploy the initial install with RIS/WAIK, including unattended installations of Office, Acrobat etc, and then control what users can do with Group Policies and keep the systems patched with WSUS, and use VNC or Remote Assistance for tech support issues, you hardly ever have to leave your own desk!

Huzzah! Now, if only I knew what I was doing ... [grin]

VNC, however, I do use - even just for overseeing the install process from a desk away. Yes, I am that lazy.

A quick check of the default settings on the HP Security Tools BIOS monitor revealed that these laptops have the network boot disabled by default. Nice of them.

You would want Network Boot disabled by default, otherwise it'd be doing it every time you turned it on with a network cable plugged in. So you enable it, do the install, then disable it again. Or it's often there on a 'boot from' menu, like where you'd choose to boot from CD or USB (or floppy if your PCs still have them!).

(I really must make a 'tech talk' icon)

D'oh. I am a muppet. Of course.

Mine's the inside of one of my PCs, with some blur and softglow effects, the "Ball-tongue" font and then some glow effects applied to the font too ...

I did make a 'camera' icon last night though, for photo related posts. The blur is intentional by them way...

(and not in any way an artefact of the 'how do you take a photo of your camera's viewfinder' situation)

With a second camera? On macro mode? [grin]

Looks a bit like an old space invaders game, actually. [grin]

Second camera being my mobile phone, which has no macro mode - hence it's out of focus.

I'll probably do a better one next time I can take a photo with someone else's camera (eg the one at work).

Ah! That would do it.
