    This is ridiculous. I bought a Sony SZ laptop in September and worked oversees for 6 weeks. The thing was slow and clunky. Came back and read about the WAU folder which is no where to be found on my SZ (hidden searches and all). I order the DVD from MS on the 16th of December and have yet to see it. A call to them resulted in a nasty woman telling me I can't pay FedEx. I'm about to go back to England for several months and need to get this laptop setup correctly.

    Amazon misleads you into thinking that the DVD is downloadable. I made the mistake of purchasing without reading the reviews (never again).

    I've searched torrents for the iso and can't find it either, and before anyone says anything, I don't think that is illegal for the simple fact that I already have the license.

    Does anyone know where I can get this by FedEx, UPS or DHL? I'm willing to pay the shipping charges so I can work on it this weekend.
