  1. Saw a laptop where it took 5 DVDs to create the factory restore set. Five! Do you know how much information you can fit on 5 DVDs? Given that W7 fits on one, what could possibly be in there?

      In comparison, I have an OS image that is compressed to 1.3 GB with compilers, hex editors, multiple web browsers, multiple media players, DosBOX, compatibility layers like Wine, office software, encoders and on and on.

      Sounds like a lot of bloatware in their setup. First thing I always do when I get a new computer is stopping all the junk processes.

      Depends if it's making a compressed installer like the w7 dvd, or literally just copying everything to the backup media (Seems w7 install is about 20.1 or so GB for everyone I ask). If it's backing up Program Files, theres extra data used. Still, dvd media is so cheap it's not a big deal.
