Managing hundreds of Linux machines is easy.

| If you wish to set up a windows machine a certain way this means that you
| will have no other choice but to connect to each machine and perform the
| required registry setting. Sure this can be done by a script or via a reg
| file but you have no guarantee that each registry is the same. It is also
| time consuming and as you are changing the registry the machine needs to be
| rebooted to make sure that the settings come into effect. With a Linux
| machine all you need to do is set your configuration files to how you want
| them and then batch copy those file to every machine at once. It is far
| quicker and you can guarantee that each machine is set up exactly the same.
| You don't need to reboot the machine either. The end user has no idea, not
| even the slightest that you have adjusted his machine.
