Hey GLC, PR, forum and all,

My wife has an IBM Thinkpad T23 with XP and DVD drive. It is an old work laptop and she has to return the encrypted HD. I have two questions: First, can I install an 80GB HD and second, the more important one, how do I reinstall XP without buying another copy???
Thanks guys, you've helped with my desktop, now it's the laptop's turn
