Options for quickly setting up a new hire developer machine

[=?Utf-8?B?UnlhbiBBbmRydXM=?=]

Hi,

I have a need to provide options for quickly setting up a developer machine.
When a new person is hired we loose a day or so of work just getting there
box ready for development.

I've seen ghost used for this before but does this cause any issue with
windows OS or MSDev?

What are the other options besides ghost?

Thanks,

Hi Sleazy,

Sorry, but this newsgroup mainly focuses on the .Net general programming
question, so I think you will not get much useful help for this question
here.

Thanks

Best regards,
Jeffrey Tan
