How to sysprep a Virtual Machine
Came across this fantastic article on how to sysprep a virtual machine:

This is really helpful because for a while now me and my team at Neudesic have been wanting to create a nice library of sysprep'ed VMs to have on hand for when we need them. I got this working as far as just sysprep'ing a Windows Server 2003 VM, but I have yet to try it with a server with WSS or MOSS installed. When I get around to this I will try to post a part II to this entry with the results (and if there are any sneaky things that need to be done to make it work right).
