Streamlining Windows deployment is one of Microsoft's stated goals for its next Windows release. A new installation kit is one key to realizing that vision.
One of Microsoft's stated goals for Windows Vista is enabling streamlined deployment. Microsoft wants corporations and consumers to be able to roll out Vista more quickly, reliably and cheaply than they have been able to do with previous versions of Windows.
On the corporate side of the house, Microsoft is planning to release a variety of new deployment tools, including one called the Windows Automated Installation Kit (WAIK), that it is banking on to deliver these improvements.
