One caveat that I so unfortunately discovered is that many of the "pre-installed"
Windows XP packages that are sold with new computers are a special OEM version that
almost always does not include Windows XP disks and therefore, no backup utility.
I purchased an e-Machines PC in Dec 2001 and after having to restore the entire system
twice due to crashes and inability to boot at all, I tried to install the backup
utility and was chagrined to find out it is not included. I don't think this is
specific to eMachines but I was extremely disappointed to discover that I will either
have to purchase a retail version of XP or, as previous posts suggested, a different
backup utility.
