Oh yes, it actually states "Blank Recovery Disc" on the disc. Anyway, I
checked one disc just to be sure - it was empty. There actually seems to be
all kinds of software on the HD. I still haven't checked it all out.
I'd still like to get my hands on the discs they were installed from,
especially Windows! No response from the Acer yet.
