Good info for sure. Lots of things should be done VIA GPO but most companies (system admins) don't seem to know how to properly use and implement it. It can make your life so much easier. That and using power shell scripts to edit large groups of users.

we're including it in the planning process of the OS upgrades. definitely a awesome time to do it. before you go to make a config for a machine, instead try to cahnge the setting in grou policy.

we have a couple issues with adding n updating registry entries. it maybe better to use a login script for these
