Bet PC world are shi**ing  ;D
My lappy came with no recovery disk and an empty recovery partition.
When I took it back and inquired about it, they ran me a copy off.  ::)

Point seen Kent  :)
But if I buy a new PC/Lappy from a reputable seller, I want a copy of the OS recovery disk.
I'm not daft enough to pay for it.

I've re-installed 'my' copy of Vista on both my laptops. It never asked me for the Serial Key ??
