Hardware independent disk image prog?

I've read reviews of Ghost, Drive Image, Altiris, and others, for cloning
a Windows machine to clients.

I work in a very heterogenious hardware environment on a TCP/IP network.
We have 500+ machines, all different types (hardware and OSes).

What I'd love to find is a disk imaging program which supports PXE or
something similar, doesn't care if a host is part of a Windows domain or
wants to remain independent, and can tolerate most any type of hardware -
at least for SCSI and IDE, processor, laptop, desktop, whatever. Network
and video drivers can always be obtained later, if necessary.

The solution should be for one to 1000+ machines.

Thanks in advance for any leads.

Ghost Corporate should do the job.

You can download the manuals and decide for yourself.

You forgot to include PowerQuest's Deploy Library v2.0 (DeployCenter 5.51).
