Nice utility which I am shocked hasn't been more popular earlier on, ran across this a day or two ago while creating a boot-able usb that contains all versions of both x86 and x64 Windows 7. I also have started one that when done will contain both XP Home and Pro, Vista and Windows 7 in both x86 and x64 versions as desired.
