Imaging New Computers

When we get a new machine from Apple, we image it so it is ready for a user (our site-licensed software, etc.).

Since OS X, using Apple Software Restore has been unreliable especially between different types of computers. And now that Apple is canning OS 9, that option appears to be out completely. Apple doesn't even use it anymore.

I'd like suggestions from people here on what is our best option considering ease of use to image, ease of setup, and ease of making changes/updates to the image.

thanks in advance!

I still use Apple Software Restore. I just have all the newest versions of disk copy and the scripts needed to make the image. I have them compiled into a disk image. If you burn the image using disk copy it will result i a bootable OS 9 CD, with all the needed software to make an image. Also contact your Apple Representative, they should be able to point you to a way of getting the official ASR kit.
