BTW, if for some reason you or anyone else should damage, loose or the OEM
cannot provide you with your original disk you can get them here.

I've dealt with these folks a few times and they are very friendly, prompt
and have excellent customer service. I had a little mishap on my part when I
ordered a set of disk for a older HP machine. I gave them the correct
numbers, but had two of the numbers in the wrong place. Turns out the
numbers I gave was indeed a set of disk for another system. When I tried to
install them it wouldn't work. I emailed them and they ask for the serial
number. They found the correct disk and sent them to me at no additional
charge and even paid to have to others sent back. Now that is service,
although I felt because it was my mistake I went ahead and sent them a check
for shipping and got a very nice letter back from them.
