Is there any way to get a gold copy or a copy of the XP to a CD- at no charge?
I mean, if the puter has XP on it - don't you have a right to have a backup in case its corrupted? Will MSoft allow you to have one, or give you one,
or let you DL one fom the MSoft site, for free?
I'd think a reciept for purchase of the system should let you get it. Hunh?
