prefs not cloned

My main task for SD is cloning (Smart Update) to 15 identical machines (iMacs, 10.5.6) from my master machine in our computer lab. Unfortunately, a bunch of stuff has to be fixed by hand for each computer after a clone. I have to go into prefs for each account and tell it not to show the bluetooth icon in the menu. Same for Time Machine, and Airport in the Network Pref pane. Also, the Software Update pane has to be manually reset so it won't automatically check for updates weekly. It pretty much doubles the time it takes to clone.

Otherwise I have been a long time big fan of SD. I own a personal license, and two licenses at work.

Any suggestions?
