When you purchase...it is important...very important that you purchase an OEM Win7 disk..

You do NOT want a factory installed...system where you are required to burn the backup. Take the extra step...and "take the bullet."

The original disk will cost an additional 100 USD.

YOU may want to consider a "dual boot" and begin playing around with the free sourced Lynix.

Sincerely,
Gargoyle
