I purchased and dl'd Vista Ultimate today. I also dl'd and ran the Windows
Vista Upgrade Advisor tool today and it warned that i would need to install
a DVD drive. Is this true even if I'm installing from the downloaded copy
of it?

If you run it from xp desktop you can use daemon tools and mount iso and
install that way without a dvd drive. Ive done it like that.

The download can run from an XP or W2k desktop. Be sure to get the dvd
mailed to you. It is only $9.95 for shipping. Buy a dvd drive for later.
You will not be able to access the recovery tools without one.
