Diskless Network computing With Windows XP?



Hi all, I need a little help here. I am a low level system admin, and
I just
got a huge promotion to the Sr. System Admin. Along with the promotion
came
a requirement to development and deploy a network with 44 desktops, 25
operational by October 1, 2006, with an Exchange and a file server,
backup servers for failover, and a connection to our WAN

Doesn't sound too bad, I have basic knowledge and skills, but here
are a couple of more
requirements. All workstations need to run Windows, and (the big one)
no
data may be stored outside of the vault / server room. That means I
need a
diskless network running WindowsXP pro, or I need removable hard drives
that
would require a huge amount administrative paperwork in order to track
and control.


Nothing is currently in place. I can build or buy whatever I want at
this
point, but I need to get an idea of what I'm going to need, and how
much it's
going to cost so that I can get a budget started.


Any guidance would be great! If someone could just point me to some
resource in print or on the web, I would be very grateful!


JB
