Open Letter to Acer

I recently bought Acer Aspire 7250 laptop. My purpose was to install Ubuntu alongside with Windows 7 and carefull man as I am I created Acer recovery disks (took 4 DVDs) to be able to restore device to factory default state if something goes wrong. And something did go wrong and boot loader got corrupted somehow and device did not boot anymore. Luckily I had created recovery disks - I thought. But it appeared that "lighter" recovery only restores contents of C: drive and it did not fix boot sector and when I tried "harder" total restore I got this:

WTF?! How am I supposed to clear disk when device does not boot and even if it boots what am I supposed to do? Why the hell recovery does not do cleanup itself? Recovery disks appeared to be totally unusable. There must be somewhere in Acer some braindead individual who is actually responsible for this total crap recovery system. I hope - and I believe I speak on behalf of many who have rendered their brand new laptops unusable - that this idiot will be executed. Thank you.

p.s. Luckily I was able to install Grub from Ubuntu cd and then boot to Windows and create Windows recovery CD and then use that to rewrite MBR.

p.p.s. I did not succeed to make WLAN work from Ubuntu on this laptop (and that was reason I wanted to get rid of it). Good hints are welcomed.
