My question: I have a Windows 7 64bit Ultimate OEM install disk and was wondering if I could use that to install Windows 7 on my new build today ... and then input the Win 7 Professional key & activate it once it arrives in the mail? Would that effectively "downgrade" the Ultimate install to the desired legal "Professional" install?
