FAQ: How to prep for an XP-to-Windows 7 upgrade

T-minus one day and counting: Here's how to get ready for the promised land of Windows 7

Computerworld - With Windows 7's launch just a day away, it's time to start thinking about how to prepare your aging-but-still-useful PC running Windows XP for that move you're dying to make.

Problem is, Microsoft's not offering an "in place" upgrade from XP to Windows 7 -- one that will leave everything in place and simply swap out the operating system. Unfortunately for XP fans, that's reserved for Windows Vista users only. And you avoided Vista like a bad case of H1N1, right?
It's not any comfort when you read statements like "Upgrading from XP on the same hardware will be tricky."
