That basically equates to reformatting your current OS partition and installing over it.

I personally only do clean installs anyway. Better chance of making sure things work smoothly, even if the initial setup is a pain.

Once windows 7 is available would you be able just to upgrade or only use your license key? or you need to re-install?
