[Casper] Keeping Macs in a clean state

[Miles Leacy]

I've considered Deep Freeze from Faronics Inc..  Never tested it though.
 I'm not sure how it would interact with Casper.  I assume you could have a
policy that issues the appropriate command to reboot in "defrosted" mode in
order to perform installs and/or maintenance.  I'd be interested in hearing
about experiences from anyone who is using Deep Freeze in conjunction with
Casper.
The higher overhead, simpler setup option is to reimage regularly via
policy.  If you have a local restore partition, and either a separate "data"
partition for your /Users directories or just don't care about user data,
this can be a viable solution.
