Hey Matthew,

Just a nervous Nelly....  I only like upgrading stuff I care about when
I have time to do full backups, etc.  Been a while since I backed up the
whole VM (done the data of course regularly)....

Slightly off-topic question for this list, but when the VM hardware
upgrades does it tick off the Windows activation crap?
