well you can do something called sysprep, which basically is like a factory install, where you have to put in all the information needed for the user interface... and the CD key info. But the cool thing is you can install what ever application you want and the "Factory" mode it and capture a ghost image of it. Then place that on what ever machines you want, given that they should be close to the same config for this to work right, and install.
This might not be avaliable to no Enterprise releases, but I don't know.

you need to create a "unattend" script to make it so no user interaction is needed. You put in the product key, workgroup, and all that other crap in the unattend and it should plug it in without interaction. it would take far to long to explain the ins and outs of it, best thing to do is look up unattend installs, its part of MCSE courses.

If you just want use such a CD on your computer, you can install all program which you want on your Windows syetem, then made a image by norton ghost!! If you want make a "common" CD can be used in other computer, you should get rid of the hard information befor you creat the image. The soft to get rid of the hard information may be the "SYSPREP".

do a google for "slipstream installation", that allows u to add service packs and apps into a bootable installation cd. Here are some tut sites:
