I was wondering about that, but I also realize that people in other 
parts of the world have little problem in obtaining the CD.  For 
example, I only had to phone the support line, to have the CD for my R31 
mailed to me.  Is his problem due to "IBM" or some local management 
decision?  Why is he entitled to less, simply because he lives in (IIRC) 
Singapore?  The ideal solution, would be for IBM to make the ISO 
available on line, if they don't want to send out the CD.

Given the money he spent on the ThinkPad, that CD should be available, 
at least within the warranty period.
