Slipstreaming Office 2007

This week I've been working on slipstreaming Service Pack 3 into our Office 2003 network install package. We're not quite ready to upgrade to 2007 yet, but I've been looking at the deployment process, especially since Service Pack 1 just came out. I came across this blog posting on the Microsoft Wow blog. Apparently, you just throw the updates into a folder and they're applied during the install as a post-install task, rather than having to update the binaries used in the installation. It consumes more space, I assume, but it's a heck of a lot easier.
