Computer purchase legal advice please

can anyone give me the definitive answer to this:

My old man has just bought a new computer from D***, one of their TV advertised special deals. I've always built my own from components so this has never been an issue for me but if you buy a system that comes with all the software pre-installed does the supplying company have to provide a copy of the software on CD? Common sense would seem to dictate that they do, after all part of the purchase price is for software. So if for example you had to reformat your drive and reinstall Windows etc, are you then expected to go out and pay for all the software again? Doesn't seem right to me but maybe somebody can clear this up for me? To be honest it's not really a big issue as I've got all the software he would ever need but it's the principal!!!

Thanks guys,

Neil
