XP Drivers after June 30th
I've read the message Dell provided about XP being available via Downgrade Rights after June 30, however this prompts a couple of questions.
1) From the statement, Dell says it will support the pre-installed image of XP. Does this mean that if I have to reinstall XP from a media disc I have (I'm assuming you're not sending me a media for XP, just for Vista) that I no longer have support?
2) After June 30, will there still be drivers available to download for XP should I have to reinstall it from my media, or are drivers only used with the pre-installed image?

The majority of the devices are supplied from third party vendors like nVidia, Broadcom, etc who will continue to support these devices.91

It's my understanding that Dell will pre-install XP on certain systems that would 'normally' come with Vista, AND give you all the XP and Vista CDs, including drivers and software, in the box.
