 I've received the 4 restauration CDs, after 2 phone call to the IBM
support center here in France. I just have said that I bought another
Hard Drive, and wanted to be able to use it in my t40p. I receive the
CDs 3 days later, with no charge at all.

(I bought the t40p 2 months ago)

These are just burned CD, with an IBM cover, so I guess they produce
them more or less depending on demand.
