That was fast: HP sends Mini-Note recovery disc overnight

I’m moving in about two weeks, so I wasn’t sure if I should bother calling HP support and asking for a SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop (SLED) recovery disc or if I should wait until after I moved. Ultimately I figured if the disc didn’t show up before the big move, I could always just try again in a few weeks. It turns out I shouldn’t have worried. After spending a few minutes on the phone with HP support yesterday, the company sent out a disc… using FedEx overnight shipping. So today I’m the happy owner of a SLED recovery DVD.

The funny thing is I don’t actually have a USB DVD-ROM drive yet, so I can’t even check to see if the disc works. Hopefully my disc drive will arrive sometime in the next week or two.

I’m pretty sure they have no idea who I am. I’d love to be wrong, but I
don’t kid myself. I’m pretty sure I read somewhere on the MiniNote user
forums that someone had exactly the same experience when ordering a Vista
recovery disc.

Did you get the restore disc overnight because of who you are? Do you expect that anyone who owns a 2133 will get the same service?

Just ordered mine, too. The rep said that both Vista and XP would be in the package. So XP here I come!

I’ve just got off the phone and I’ve been quoted 8-10 business days for the disc. No FedEx in the UK perhaps?
