I just got this Toshiba that I thought was a good deal:

http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/473950/Toshiba-Satellite-L55-Laptop-Computer-With/

I really like it and it is my first computer purchase in five years. I have been doing research for a nice desktop but for now I don't need much and when I saw this deal it was too good to pass up.

Question:
In the past I have always reimaged computers I have purchased to get rid of the bloatware they come with and create my own custom image, however, this laptop did not come with any disks. How do I obtain the Windows 8.1 media from Toshiba to do this to my new laptop?

Google for
"Legal windows 8 download links"

You will find an online guide that takes you to microsoft windows update. When you get there you will find you can insert your code and download a disc image. I would post a link but I think the last time I did this it was taken down. Shout up if you get stuck
