Clone Entire vista Workstation

If I am in the wrong group please direct... I am very new to
Vista Business. I have more than one computer, but I want them to all be
identical. I used to do this with ghost. I have one system setup Exactly as I
would like the others, and I have read and read many pages aboud bdd2007, but
I still don't understand HOW to clone one computer and drop that entire image
onto another. (I do have my licenses in order). If someone could direct me
to a step by step or is this not possible. I dont' want to install each
workstation individually if there is an easier way..

Why wouldn't you continue to do this with Ghost? If Ghost doesn't
support Vista, Acronis True Image does. Look at their Enterprise
products. Oh, you and don't want to "clone"; you want to "image".

Thank You.. the version of Ghost I have does not support vista, and thank you
for the correct terminology. I will look at either upgrading Ghost & at the
Acronis site.

Acronis is great. After re-installing Vista twice due to flakey issues I'm
imaging my OS partition once a week now with it.
