To help get around the lack of talos-specific-minis, once we get talos-on-win7 running on one mini, we can stop running talos-on-vista and convert those vista machines over to win7.

talos-on-XP will continue running unchanged.

Pretty much all configured except that the tool that we use for forcing 1280x1024 screen resolution on reboot no longer works.  This is an issue as windows machines seem to frequently lose their resolution settings and reset to something else (800x600 or 1024x768).  We need to have a consistent screen resolution to get consistent results. 

On our other windows platforms we use http://www.12noon.com/displaychanger.htm
