Using This Guide
This guide is intended to serve as a part of the Microsoft® Solution Accelerator for Business Desktop Deployment (BDD) to guide a specialist team through BDD 2007 for Windows Vista™ and the 2007 Microsoft Office system deployment tasks and checkpoints. The goal is to ensure that the deployment is managed as a specific initiative of the specialist team within the scope of a larger deployment project. The objective is to have the decisions made within this initiative align with the overall project goals and have the deliverables well integrated into the total migration project.
Because this guide contains guidance only on installing Lite Touch Installation (LTI) in the deployment process, reviewing the guides listed in Table 1 can further assist in customizing the configuration settings for the specific environment.
