    I should be receiving the nc8430 in a few days and have been reading some good posts about setting up the PC for the first time.

    XP install guide

    Here is what I planned on doing:
    1 - create the recovery DVD's
    2 - wipe out the drive and recovery partition
    3 - create 2 partitions
    a - OS XP pro (30GB)
    b - Data (70GB)

    Thoughts? Advice?
