Operating system needed for X61s

#1 Post by hotspur » Sat Aug 24, 2013 2:48 pm

Just picked up a nice Thinkpad X61, but it has no operating system or recovery partition. Underneath is a pristine license for Windows Vista Business. What's my best (cheapest?) way of getting the necessary software?

Thanks.
