big deployment

Hi everyone.
Just a question for you. We have a customer who wants to roll out XP and SP2
onto 2000 machines. Presuming they have an AD domain and have passed the HCL
etc what method would you recommend the best way for this vast array of
machines?
Group policy, or purchasing Microsoft SMS or something like that to
facilitate the massive install. I have only got experience using small
rollouts to 50 users.
Many thanks in advance and have a nice weekend

Nick
