Most manufacturers don't give you a disc, just a partition on the HDD.

if thats correct, thats wrong IMO ..every Compuiter sold with Vista  the Customer should always receive the DvD/CD of that operating system .. it'd be like Redhat Selling a Computer with RHEL on a Computer to a Customer an not giving the Customer the DvD/CD so they could rescue the installation if it were to crash adruptly

Crazy, all the manufactured PCs I've had came with dvds, leaving it on a hdd is silly =p

what happens when the hdd gets infected or the boot record goes u need a dvd/cd

In Aus, most people that ive seen who have bought a laptop here have not gotten the dvd with it, personally i got a re-installation XP disk when i got my computer, but it seems some people dont

When is the last time you bought one though? Most stopped supplying discs when Vista came out.
And ICQ, I agree. My thinkpad HDD died after a week of use, it was just lucky that I have a retail copy of Vista.
