Default Disappointment with Vista alternative media program?
Correct.

If the OP ordered Vista 32 or 64 bit on CDs instead of on DVDs then if he
received 6 CDs that would be about the right number. Also it should be
noted that when Vista is installed it consumes between 14 and 18 GB which
is far more then a standard DVD can hold. The installation DVDs are in a
compressed Cab folder format and don't expand to files till during the
installation.


So your comment about " a lot of other software" was a red herring and
completely irrelevant then.
