The VSTS 2010 CTP, 1/1/2009 and you Hyper-V conversion nuts (myself included ;)

Skinner's Blog - VSTS 2010 CTP, Hyper-V, and January 1st, 2009

“For those of you folks who have converted the VSTS 2010 CTP ( see Grant's post ) to take advantage of the performance improvements in hyper-v, here's a manual way to get around the fact that VSTS will expire Jan. 1st 2009. ( If you're using the CTP with VPC, see Brian's post for a similar workaround ).

Skinner provides a step by step “going backward in time on Hyper-V” guide for everyone who converted their VSTS2010 VHD over to Hyper-V and are facing the CTP expiration deadline.
