Yeah, I agree. We have a site license for Windows and always image the pc as soon as we get it. Having the computer come with the OS is more of a pain because we end up having to keep track of which ones have the OEM license and which ones have a site license.
I would prefer that when I buy a pc for personal use that it come with a disk with the OS and seperate disks with any utilities anyway. All that crap that comes pre-installed is annoying. This way, I install the OS myself and it's a lot cleaner.
