Mark Russinovich retires NewSID, SysPrep your Clones

Mark Russinovich of Sysinternals fame, has announced that he is retiring the NewSID utility. After questioning the common belief that duplicate SIDs posed a risk, he offers a compelling rationale why this is false and that we have been duped. The debate that follows in the comments leads me to the conclusion that machine images used for deployment should always be SysPrepped!
