Having pre-ordered Windows 7 and about to buy a new computer, the very first thing I will do is format... and install Windows 7 from the DVD (New install, I'm on XP anyway). But I would have appreciated to buy a computer and have Windows 7 OEM (not the branded one!) on a DVD, like when I bought my computer with Windows XP! This is a known and obvious problem, but how to disagree that there is unfairness in these practices? Why is it no longer possible to buy a naked PC/laptop with the system install DVD?
