   You probably didn’t get a chance to hear the installer audio. I did deployments when 10 was new and it literally baby talks users through the installation with the Cortana character from Halo. It is enabled by default, even in enterprise.

   And for deployments of dozens or hundreds of workstations, because Windows licensing check-in, the procedure we used was to start the installation on a staging system, then stop the installer right before the user is instructed to reboot and log in, then take an image.

   Then the volume is distributed out to the remote systems and allowed to deploy and acquire its own Desktop-* hostname and licensing.

   That shit would be a non-issue, so much easier and so much faster with a Linux net install or even something like the graphical web server installer that Ubuntu was flirting with.

   I have zero respect for anyone who suggests that Windows is even remotely aimed at technical users. It is a children’s toy.
