[olpc-help] "flushing" nickname identity, returning to new state.

Is there any way to "flush" the nickname, identity, preferences, journal settings in order to return the OLPC to it's new "just out of the box" state?  Suppose you just wanted to "test drive" it before giving it to a son, daughter, niece, or nephew?  You don't want them to have to use the nickname that you choose, nor see all the silly journal entries of you poking around the thing...

I'm wondering if simply renaming the /home/olpc folder will force it to reinitialize that users home and all it's settings???  Might give it a try...
