Most manufacturers now only give you a restore cd or a recovery partition. I
used to recommend Dells just for that reason.. but they stopped doing it now.
We ordered one a few months ago and when it came in, I formatted it then looked
around for the WinXP disc.. and there was none. They just give you this little
piece of cardboard that looks like a CD saying that there is no CD anymore. So
before you go formatting, make sure you have the right XP disc. I happen to
have an OEM version of XP Home so I could install it and use the product key.
