I’ve gone through it once, but wasn’t sure what I was suppose to do.

I like the idea that I can set up a system, and have it work “like new” for a customer. I’d like to be able to install everything I think should be one a system before I give it out. But, with Gimme on Ubuntu now, that might not be necessary.

I did an OEM install by mistake about a year ago, which was terribly confusing because I was such a newb. I don’t know why I didn’t think of it now. Do you use them for stuff you give away?
