Any gotcha's lurking for me ?

We did this with RIS (MUST have CORPORATE Office2003 for RIS, so no empowerment/enablement/registration/BS) and a machine OU in Win2k network...no bugs at all the old is removed and the new is installed. Course M$ has to have you re-accept the EULA and give your Name and Initals all over again...also Outlook sometimes needed to be configured again to tell it the Exchange Server and User Name (not sure why.)

Read the roll-out info on the Microsoft Office deployment site, the format of your email PST files changes and is not backward compatible.
It caught me as me laptop is not XP upgradable so any backups of my email are not loadable on it (a pain)
There's going to be a few more.

Use the installation designer included with the Office03 Resource Kit. You can include the eula, configure security settings, disable install on first use, push the Exchange configuration settings (if needed)...basically you can pre-configure the install to maintain conformity in your organization.
