We have plenty of ideas. Yvain posted a Discussion thread filled with ideas how. "Alternate history" is an old sub-genre dating back at least to Mark Twain (who makes many concrete suggestions about how his Connecticut yankee would do something similar).
But what's the point? See my reply to Bugmaster - it's impossible or would defeat the point of the discussion to actually execute the strategies, and anything short of execution is vulnerable to 'that's magic!11!!1'
By reading the many discussions of what could go wrong and implementing whatever is easiest, like hacking computers. Oh the irony!
