    Hello everyone, I just received my M15x and I have a couple of questions....

    1. Where is the cover for the touchpad?

    2. What is the difference between the Recovery DVD and Respawn DVD?

    Thanks a lot for your help.....

    1) you should get some stickers to put on your touchpad to make it grippier (i don't think i did though, come to think of it)... is that what you mean?

    2) Recovery is a clean Windows Vista install disc. Respawn is a disc preloaded with your OS and all the drivers and customization done at AW for you. basically it contains what was on your HDD right when you got the notebook.

    The touchpad stickers should be located inside the leather binder they've sent you.
