Scripting Windows 2008 System State Backup

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

We are going to be deploying Windows Server 2008 for our file servers and as
part of our load we do a system state backup with Windows Backup. On 2003 it
was quite easy you can schedule it and away you go. However on 2008 you have
to run it command line now and you cannot schedule that unless you write a
script for it. I’ve been checking out Google and to my surprise there are
pretty much no references to anyone else that has scripted this and scheduled
it.

Anyone got some references?
