Is there an opportunity to run bcdedit after doing the sysprep? Or does
the system shut down at that point?
The guy from sysinternals wrote an article about why resetting the SID
is not necessary in almost all cases except for Domain Controllers -

- I'm not sure I understand it all but if anyone would know, he would.
Sysprep /generalize does other things apart from resetting the SID
though so I don't know if you can do without it...
