Deploying Software using Group Policy

From the Windows Dev Center, another good article on Microsoft Windows Administration.  This one is on Using Group Policy to Deploy Software.

From the article:

Deploying software is something that is typically a pretty simple task. However, this is not necessarily the case when the software you are deploying must be installed to dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of computers. The headache involved in doing this tends to increase as the number of computers goes up. The thought of physically going to every single machine and installing the necessary software can really get you feeling down. Fortunately for us, Microsoft provides a much easier method through group policy-based software installation.
