This may or may not be a Cocoa question but I thought someone on this

I have a question about the "Welcome" startup screen that runs the first
time you startup a new mac... the one that sets up your home directory,
internet prefs, registration, etc, for the first time. Does anyone know
if it's possible to get it to run again "on-demand"?
I occasionally send custom-configured macs out the door and I'd like to
give the recipients an easy way to customize their systems. If I can get
away with it, I'd like to use the basic Apple "Welcome" app (if I can
figure out how). If not, I may have to write a custom app that mimics it.
There's a "Setup Assistant" in /System/Library/CoreServices that
deals with the Apple Registration stuff. I think account creation
step has separate UI, and it would probably be hard to run that
after the fact.
