I have an early 2008 Aluminum 20" iMac that has limited warranty until December 2009. I would like the recovery disk for my iMac (it was open box when I bought it and the disks were not there). I want the recovery disk incase I need to recover, or want to run BootCamp. I tried using Apple's online support service but it kept erroring, saying "We're sorry, we cannot complete your request at this time." Is this some e-mail address I can contact, explain the situation, and get my recovery disk? Or will Apple even send me the recovery disks for this machine?
Got a tip for us?

Call AppleCare. Recovery discs or any disc that came with your computer will cost you about $15 w/out tax (approx. $17 and some change). This would be the best way especially if you're looking to reinstall the OS.
