First thing to do when you get the unit is to register it at:
http://www.pc.ibm.com/support Click on Profile under the Personalize bar. Call
the Help Center at 1-800-772-2227 and tell them you've "lost" your recovery CDs.
They'll replace them at either no or low cost, including the Software Selections
CD.
Bear in mind though, they will only replace the CD for the OS that your system
left the factory with. If you've got a 2645-5FU, you'll get a W98 Recovery CD. A
2645-8PU or 2645-9FU will get the W2K CD.
Regards,
James
