is HP shipping that machine with a bootable option to restore the entire
system to "ship" defaults by installing from the recovery partition?
If so, there is a technique (I have used it several times with HP machines)
for repartitioning the drive, installing Suse, and then "recovering" the
original from the recovery partition.
Now for the caveat... I have only done this several times with XP... M$ may
have different rules (behaviors) for the vista preloads. On the other hand
(and a positive note) HP is probably trying to maintain some consistency with
their product line and the HP vista preloads probably work just like the XP
preloads did.
Maybe this works the same for Vista:
