1. Yes it will be just like the first day you got it, except for changes like the "faster ringing" which is in the "phone programming", the registry will be like day one.

2. Hard to answer, but my guess for you would be a .1 unless you do some completely crazy thing. From the sound of it, you are already concerned and aware of the worst case scenario, which is lightyears ahead of a lot of people that just jump in and do every edit they find without hardly reading, so you'll be just fine.


I have done 2 hard resets personally.
Once in the beginning when I wanted everything fresh again.
Then once again after experimenting for awhile when I got almost everything the way I wanted with tweaks, reg edits, and programs I did another hard reset and and reinstalled everything like that (so as to have the memory defragged basically and get rid of leftover files and changes from deleting unwanted programs and such)
