Do the SL510 models that ship with Win XP preinstalled ship with Win 7 disks?

Not sure about the SL510 but my T400s was an XP Downgrade and when later I wanted to upgrade to Win 7, I had to call and get Win 7 disks from Lenovo. I had to call several times to get a responsive support person, who shipped the disks at no charge. I suggest you call as soon as you receive the machine and request the disks.
