I just realized that my release client version of Windows 7 ultimate will go inactive on 1 Mar of this year.... Can I buy a retail version of Windows 7 and "upgrade" to it from the release client or am I looking at a complete re-install?

There are work arounds apparently.
How to Upgrade the Windows 7 RC to RTM (Final Release) - the How-To Geek

You should have gotten in on the Win7 rollout event MS held. Event Horizons was handling it and everyone that went along with me got a free copy. Buddy of mine got 2 copies (!!!) but had to sell one for $50 2 months ago for gas money (poor college student).
As I read it, the RC will reboot every 2 hours starting on March 1. Its still usable, but it will get annoying in a hurry.Oh if a man tried to take his time on Earth and prove before he died what one man's life could be worth, well I wonder what would happen to this world ? - Harry Chapin
