Remote Laptops

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.work_remotely (More info?)

Not recommended at all over a slow link... I could only imagine
an administrative install of Office 2003 over a slow link...
Torture...

Would these remote users ever connect locally to a high speed network?
It might be better to either defer these installs until then (which I
think is the default anyway) or non-administratively deploy them...

I would suggest you also post this to the
microsoft.public.windowsxp.setup_deployment newsgroup, or the
microsoft.public.windows.group_policy newsgroup...
