I want to upgrade to Windows 7 rc.
If I do not like Windows7 (or have issues with it) and want to revert to Vista, can I simply uninstall the Upgrade?

I do not have a disc copy of Vista.

No, you will have to wipe out the drive and then do a clean install of Vista. What I would suggest doing instead is a dual-boot scenario to see if you like Win7 and if you don't, you can easily wipe it out.
Thanks Milt....haven't quite made up my mind yet.
Maybe I'll just chicken out until the regular issue comes out.
Cheers...Robert

No need to chicken out. If you are not comfortable dual booting, then just do as already suggested and use a virtual machine. (Vmware, Virtual Box or MS's own Virtual Machine)It's not all that hard to install and set up a virtual machine, and install an OS into it. However, you will not get a real world test that way, (How it ACTUALLY performes on your machine), as virtual machines use generic drivers etc. ..BUT, you can at least run the OS and decide if you like the user interface, new things and so on.
Cheers
