For organizations seeking to plan and automate Windows 7 deployments, there are few Web pages better equipped to help with that process than the TechNet Windows 7 Deployment FAQ. Not only will you find links to the various Microsoft planning, assessment, and deployment toolskits there, but you will also find issues related to Windows Server 2008 R2, recent Service Packs, and other important concerns addressed there as well. Think of it as a general clearinghouse for Windows 7 Deployment topics and you won’t be too far off the mark.

And while you’re in that part of TechNet, you’ll already be in the Windows 7 Desktop Deployment guide section as well. Be sure to check out the neighboring TechNet documents before you leave this area, including the various guides and toolkit overviews in that immediate vicinity (here’s a partial screenshot of the surrounding and relevant contents):
