I just got myself a new laptop (HP Pavillion DM1, very happy with it so far, will aim to post my own review in a few weeks).
It comes with no re-install DVD for Windows (Home Premium 32 bit) although looks like i can burn my own. The default installation came of course with all the usual crapware (60 day Norton, MS Office Trial, Windows Live, AOL toolbar), and I assume that a burnt re-install DVD would also include all of this.
Given that i have a licence key sticker on the laptop, and a bought copy of Windows 7 for my desktop, I presume I can just use that disc and avoid the crapware.
If i did this - can I install the 64 bit version instead of the current 32 bit? I presume my licence is simply for Win7 Home Premium, irrespective of flavour?
