Re: Trying to get the team on CAD
Alright, so, this has changed a LOT from my original idea, but I have been making security and usage choices.
Did NOT use Server 2008, it refused to install Inventor, decided to use Windows 7 Professional, just for the master image, this may change later on.
The software still contains Inventor 2013, with Offline Help. I have added
Antivirus software
Internet-Tunneling Remote Desktop (TeamViewer) for quick admin tasks.
The flash disk I bought was just my test drive, I'm not going to buy a $50-$70 drive for the initial tests and checks. Most likely if this is a viable solution, and everyone would use it, I would then go and buy nicer drives. The writes are slower than the reads, but there are going to be very few writes to the drive in all, because most files will be saved remotely (A little tedious, but doable).
Another idea I have, is a BYOD (bring your own drive) type-thing, where I would install and configure a drive brought to me, alongside the 4 or 5 preinstalled drives.
Because the actual image resides as a Clonezilla image on my external drive, duplication is very easy.
