I read MS Article - 307800 about user profiles and it
seems to say that I can assign where a user profile is
stored. If I have five users and five different computers
on my network does this mean that I can store all of their
profiles on COMPUTER XYZ and when they go to logon on
their computer that their profile will load from COMPUTER
XYZ? Would this also allow me to create one mandatory
user profile and have all of my five users logon profile
point to the same profile? Would this work if they all
loged on at the same time?

Correct. You can store users profiles on one central computer. Just
make sure users have permission to get the files from that computer.
