Would you consider selling copies of your image on CD or DVD,=20 whichever is most appropriate? We all can do exactly what you've=20 done, except that you've already done it. You would want to ensure that the Windows Key was either blank or=20 bogus, though. That should stop any talk of piracy or whatever other=20 related concerns that might arise. I've been considering doing exactly what you describe but have just=20 not got around to it. Getting a copy of your image would save=20 several hours - or more.
