I did it on one box.  and it mostly works fine.  but the box does some goofy 
things at times.  I would recommend against doing it.  after the upgrade i 
still had to clean alot of things up.  In all seriousness I dont think it is 
a sane thing to do.  I am going to rebuild the box i did it on soon because 
of the quirks
