I'm with you there. I just don't have a recovery CDROM, so I'm keeping the
recovery partition as a last resort. I'll have to look into creating a
bootable restore CDROM.

It'd be really nice to be able to update that recovery partition too...
Those service packs took a LONG time to download. I'd love to save the
new XP configuration in that recovery partition. Too bad IBM didn't think
that far ahead.
