Changing the local username and password after the Win 7 PC has joined a domain.

I have dutifully changed my passwords and usernames over the last 3 years, but as I built and added about 20 Win 7 Pro PC's during that time and then added them to the domain.  But now they all have different local usernames and passwords depending on what I was using at that time. 

I recently had to unjoin/rejoin them to the domain for a new SBS 2011 Re-install and had to in a few cases boot using the local user, change the workgroup, and change back to the domain (I was receiving the "this computer is already part of a domain" msg).  On 2 computers I spent a long time trying to remember the local username and password I used when starting the box, and was fortunate I finally did (at 2 am).

They are all joined to SBS 2011.

Is there any tool, utility, register entry where I can easily add a local user to all my Win 7 Pro PCs that is the same?  Thanks.
