    I'm not sure if this was asked before and I also did a search just in case. I went to configure the M1210 and strangely, there is a no option to choose the Windows Reinstallation CD. I wonder if that means that it's equipped with Norton Ghost... Thanks.

    2 things come to mind:
    1.) dell's site is screwed up and they aren't showing the listing
    2.) the M1210 might come with a reinstallation disc. Dell does include XP discs with certain systems (mainly the premium systems: latitude/precision).

    If worse comes to worse, call dell and request this disc after you buy your system.

    I asked my sales rep this same question when i was ordering my M1210 the other day. He didn't know why the option for the xp disc wasn't there. I suggested he ask a supervisor, he did. He said it's automatically included with the M1210.
