I know about Imaging a drive...lots
I know nothing about Deep Freeze
It writes an image to C:, and boots from this image?
It needs disk usages plus 10% ?
Other concerns

Re: PC protection , Deep freeze your? their PCs !
I am not too familiar with that. But one concern I can foresee is that someone will inevitably save something to the local machine and it will get lost when they restart the system. Whether its some important file that was downloaded or something they were working on and it accidentally got saved to the local machine. Restart and its gone.
Yes you mentioned the network drive, but will everyone remember to use that? We have a network share at my work as well and I do my best to save everything to the share drive, but occasionally I will forget or it will be saved in the downloads folder. Not a big deal because I can access it.
Other than that, I believe doing something like that is an amazing idea. I dont know if migrating your entire network to a system of diskless workstations. Basically it just loads the operating system off the network. I have not done much research on this but it sounds like its pretty promising.

Considering that the goal of a BOFH is to make his own life easy even when screwing the users and limiting the capabilities of their PCs this does seem like a way to achieve it. One can only wonder how the OS and installed applications ever get security patches and bug fixes though.
If you are going to burden the users in this way thin clients can save a lot of money.
Or replace all of the PCs with ChromeBooks and ChromeBoxes and just fire all of the Windows "admin" guys to save even more money.
