Edit System Registration info?

Question is can I do it???

What I am talking about is...In the control panel under "System" on the General tab you see the info there where it says Registered too....Then my name???

How can I edit that info???

I plan on gettin rid of one or two of my pc's and they had a fresh install a while back and there is nothing on there other than some software...I will be putting the XP home disk with these...So I would like to put "New User" there instead of my name so that when they download a file or software it doesn't just automatically put my name in there...

I looked real quick in regedit and found the keys (#'s) but no name...

I don't really want to put the time into doing a repair and all that just to do it...Thanks
