Some people have been losing sleep over the “what if” question of upgrading to Windows Vista, and having it screw up. Then not having the option to go back to Windows XP because Windows Vista ate their license during the upgrade. Well, fear not friends! Super Windows Geek Paul Thurott has figured it out.

Great work guys!
