Move Workstations around OU's via script.

Hi All,

We have many PC's in 'Workstations' container in AD that no longer exist.
This is due to poor house cleaning on our part and now we need to move them
to the 'Disabled Workstations' OU. Is there a way to automate the process to
move a PC based on the last time the object was modified in AD (which is the
same as the machine last logon to the domain)? I want to move any
workstation that has not logged into the domain 60 days or older. If so, is
it possible to set this on a schedule?

Thanks guys!!
