First, Newegg is boss when it comes to speedy delivery.
You said you have an optical drive in that thing, correct? So all you are missing is the physical disc to use to boot from? Do you know anyone that has a copy of Win7? You can easily use their disc (as long as you use YOUR key to install/activate). If I'm not mistaken, the 64-bit discs are all the same, and the difference between home/premium/ultimate is determined at install time by the key the user inputs (though I could easily be wrong here, I haven't tested the theory at all). If you can't find someone to let you borrow their install disc (make sure they know you're NOT trying to use their key), you probably will have to snag a larger flash drive from somewhere. If you lived closer I'd gladly offer either.
