Not bundling a recovery disc with a laptop is a major disservice to customers. Especially when the program to produce the recovery discs requires two blank DVDs, runs into errors on the second disc, and makes you start the whole process from the beginning (instead of letting you only burn the second disc). That was my experience with a laptop I acquired a few months ago. I needlessly burned two or three copies of the first disc while trying to get the second disc to burn correctly.
