[gptalk] WMI Filter to exclude Servers

Hello all,
 
I have a question:
 
My current client does not have a great OU structure and we need to
implement a GPO that updates settings on workstations only.
 
I haven't used WMI filters too much so I have 2 questions:
 
1. does the results of the WMI filter exclude those objects or does it
include the objects?
 
2. Can someone help me with the syntax? I was starting with something like "
Select * FROM Win32_OperatingSystem WHERE caption <> "Windows Server 2003"
 
My issue is how do I write the select statement to include all of my OS
names and how can I tell it to use a wild card like "Windows Server*"
 
Thanks,
 
Omar
