Hello,

I have a question which has been discussed (at least partially) already, but
the software environment is changing fast, so once again:

I am interested in opinions on / experiences with running a Mac lab. Specifically
how do you keep the harddisks in a workable state. Two possibilities come to
mind:
	- lock (parts of) the disks with some utility. But what are the
	  implications (eg. locking the system folder would propably break
	  a number of programs) ?
	- Provide a clean copy of the important folders on a fileserver.

Any comments are welcome.
