you can get a full (not upgrade) version of XP Pro on ebay for $70. Computer manufacturers usually include a restore cd instead of the windows cd because they install a bunch of crap like aol, hotmail, ect, which they pay the computer company to put on. I find it weird that you never got a restore cd though. where did you get your computer from?
