Doesn't this seem kind of silly? I mean, c'mon, they can't just put 3, 4 or 5 discs in the box? I hate restore media as it is, but I remember having to create 28 floppies when I got a Win95 box way back. It was just stupid. I've seen a few Acers and they look pretty solid, but I say down with burning your own restore discs. Pressed discs tend to last longer, especially considering a lot of people don't realize you create a few coasters when you buy a spindle of 100 CDs for $15. *snip* Nick _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
