Those of you who, like me, frequently refer questions about missing CDs to ChrisM's post at http://forums.us.dell.com/supportforums/board/message?board.id=sw_mediaexp&message.id=1895 should be aware that the post has been deleted. I normally simply paste the link into a response without going to the post but this morning for some reason I went there to discover it was missing.

As far as I am aware there is currently no post from a Dell moderator which deals with the procedure for obtaining XP CDs or others which may be required. I have brought this to the attention of the forum administrator and hope the post will be restored or another with the same information created.
