So, Say I've got a .wim that has 1 image in it. Can I pull 2 or more installs from it all at once or can I only pull 1 at a time? Also, along the same lines, can I mount an image as RW to edit it, while an install is taking place?
 
What are you using as your deployment mechanism?

I can deploy several machines from the same WIM file when using Config Mgr 2007, I could also do the same thing with Ghost images a few years ago.

As far as I know when you mount the wim image you actually make a copy of the WIM file and mount that rather than mounting the original, when you dismount you then commit the changes but I could be wrong (I just seem to recall that's what happened when I was doing that with PE builds).
