Boot 'n Nuke ... or just Ghost?

Wiping a large number of old leased systems to ship back to Dell. Of course the usual concern about where folks did online transactions, email their girlfriends, et al. Assuring that the data is unrecoverable.

Is re-imaging with Ghost sufficient (ghosted system had a repartitioning plus "slow" NTFS format), or should we use our “boot and nuke” CD before ghosting? Overkill?

Boot 'n Nuke adds 1hr 50 mins to the process per PC.
