Installing an OS on a new notebook...?

[Zuerst]

I bought a new centrino notebook (not here yet) without an OS pre-installed because I got Windows XP Pro for $6 from my campus compu-store. Do you just go to setup, set 1st boot device to CD-ROM, pop the Windows disk in, reboot, and just follow the onscreen intructions?

That should do it.

I would assume it similar to installing an OS on a desktop.

go to setup, set 1st boot device to CD-ROM, pop the Windows disk in, reboot, and just follow the onscreen intructions

that's the ticket. When done, do all updates and enjoy.
