I've done this at work with W-95 going on multiple new machines.  We use a 
program call'd GHOST.  It also has an option to go between 2 machines with a 
twisted network cable (to eliminate using a hub) to work real quick..  With 
lap tops, I've loaded 300 meg (+/-) systems in less then 10 min.
This weekend I'm gonna burn a CD with certain images we use commonly and from 
past tests I should be able to load a machine in 3-4 min..
I cant see any reason Warp machines couldnt be done this way as long as the 
hardware was identical, including IRQ's, mem address's, ect.
Only thing I'm not sure on, does WARP use anything similar to NT's SID 
(security identifier) that must not be duplicated..
I'm sure someone will fill me in on this on..   :}
