I'll put that theory to the test this evening, once my new Galaxy Nexus arrives.
There's a simple menu-driven MS-Windows app to unlock it, root it, upgrade it, enhance it, whatever.. Sounds dumb simple to me, but we'll see how it goes in reality from a VMware image.
EDIT: Here's
a link to the app again.
Darnit! I didn't have it so easy. It took a good deal of work to get mine done. But that's just what happens. The longer these phones are out the better the tools to mess with them are.
I will say, though, that I had a tool which was supposed to make everything a series of clicks, but it turned out to be MUCH harder than that because something didn't work in the process and I couldn't find any information as to why. Mostly to do with drivers not installing correctly, I think. Then again, my current system is a complete mess held together with baling wire and duct tape
