Quite a lot of manufacturers have recovery partitions that allow you to reinstall your OS, it's not just Dell. I have never used a Dell pre-install of Windows though, due to the amount of extra software they install. Their install discs are usually fine though, they are just standard Windows discs with their OEM bios activation stuff on.
