Actually, I think the trend is that they won't give you any physical CDs or DVDs anymore. They'll either have a recovery partition on the hard drive (which I think is risky - what happens if the hard drive gets ruined?) or they'll give you the software already on the drive to burn your own recovery DVDs. This was probably done to save money on physical disks.
