We just started using MDT to image our new machines in the past few months. The guy that implemented it is going to be leaving and my supervisor wants me to take over administration of the server/images. I'm looking for a good resource to get me started and I know the 680 covers deployment to some degree. Would the study guides for that exam have what I need to know? I'm looking for something that goes into a decent amount of detail about the deployment workbench and managing images.

Bingo....that looks like what I need to be reading. I had never laid eyes in this deployment stuff until we started using it here. Looks like it could run pretty smoothly once you get it tweaked just right, though. Thanks!CISSP | CCNA:R&S/Security | MCSA 2003 | A+ S+ | VCP6-DTM | CCA-V CCP-V

There is a free deployment ebook from Microsoft that includes the deployment chapters from the Win7 Resource Kit.
Download details: Deploying Windows® 7 Essential Guidance from the Windows 7 Resource Kit and TechNet Magazine
The Deployment CD and MDT documentation linked earlier are your best choices for detailed information. If you want an overview of MDT and deployment before you dig in deep, check out the series on Win7 deployment from Mitch Tulloch over on WindowsNetworking.com:
