    Hi,

    Just a quick question. I am expecting to receive my 1710 next week (after 4+ weeks!) and I was planning on doing a fresh install, but I don't know if I will get the Vista install disk with it. I order Vista Ultimate if that helps at all.

    Thanks very much

    Ah ha, good! I can move forward with my re-installion plans! Seemed pointless making plans if I won't get a CD, but now I can!

    Thanks again.
