You are deploying Windows 7 Enterprise and Microsoft Office to client computers.
The deployment must meet the following requirements:
Deploy Windows 7 Enterprise to all client computers.
Deploy Office 2007 Professional to client computers in the Munich office.
Deploy Office 2010 Professional to client computers in the Madrid office.
Automate the deployment to minimize administrative effort.
You need to recommend a deployment solution that meets the requirements.

Company, Inc. (Case Study): Background
You are the desktop architect for a company with 14,000 client computers. Some client computers are portable computers and some are desktop computers. All client computers currently run Windows XP.
You are in the evaluation phase for upgrading to Windows 7. Approximately half of the Carlsbad and Madrid offices are used by sales employees. Sales employees report to the office only once per quarter. Your company has users in offices as shown in the following table.
The address for the SharePoint site is https://intranet.company.com.
Each location has gigabit network connections to the desktop except Madrid, which has 100 megabit connections. Each office has a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server and uses multiple VLANs.
You use Group Policy objects (GPOs) to manage various settings. The following figure displays the Organizational Unit (OU) layout for the Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain.
Each office has two connections, a data center WAN link and an Internet connection. Each office connects to a central data center facility with connection speeds as shown in the following table.
You currently use one of each client computer model to create and maintain a disk image for each model. The models supported by your company are listed in the following table.
You currently use a third-party disk imaging application to capture and deploy new Windows XP computers.
Desktop administrators use optical media to deploy the image to new or repurposed client computers. The current Windows XP image is about 11 GB in size, which includes 2 GB of applications and 9 GB of Windows XP files.
Business Requirements
The deployment of Windows 7 must meet the following business requirements:
Deployment requirements
The deployment must maximize the use of existing client computers. The deployment must reduce the amount of time spent updating client computers after deployment.
Technical Requirements
The application must meet the following technical requirements:
Infrastructure requirements
The amount of disk space required to store deployment images must be reduced. The number of images that need to be copied across WAN links must be reduced. You are based in the Los Angeles office and use the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit. You have a file server hosting a deployment share in Los Angeles.
Application compatibility
All current applications must be supported on Windows 7.
All offices are moving to a new finance application in the next six months. The new finance application
installs and runs correctly on Windows 7.
Migration requirements
The deployment cannot require users to store their files on a network or external drive for the migration. Only system administrators can be allowed to install applications. User data must be migrated during upgrades to Windows 7. There is a small budget for hardware upgrades when required.
Image maintenance
You need to minimize the re-arm passes.
Security
Each location has a security group made up of the desktop computer objects in that location. Users must
not be able to change their web browser or client computer security settings.
Your requirements are as follows:
A startup PIN and TPM are required for all BitLocker users.
Local regulations prohibit the use of BitLocker for all computers in the Munich office. This supersedes any other requirement.
All laptops within the company must have BitLocker enabled.
All Madrid desktops must have BitLocker enabled.
No other desktops besides Madrid should have Bitlocker enabled.
Computers in office lobbies are not permitted to join the domain.
You need to block the use of ActiveX controls for all external websites.
All client computers in your network run Windows XP.
Some of the computers are part of a secure network. Some of the computers connect to the network by using virtual private networking (VPN).

You have the following requirements:
Use a dedicated server for deployment.
Use a single operating system image for deployment.
Ensure that you can use removable media to deploy the image.
Ensure that you can select which applications are installed onto a client computer at the time of
deployment.
