When you order a Mac with pre-installed software through the online store does it ship with the install DVDs, manual, etc.? Just wondering in case I would need to reinstall or maybe look at the manual.

Yes, it comes with the OS X install disc and manuals, so no worries!

I was actually talking about software like Final Cut Express, Aperture, etc. that you can choose to have pre-loaded on your machine when you order on the online store. Thanks for responding though.

Oh, sorry I misunderstood. I can't promise that it will come, but it is very likely that it will.

Maybe too obvious - but have you thought of asking Apple directly?

A friend bought Aperture with his laptop and only got a PDF manual. I'm not sure a hardcopy manual exists for Aperture.

I ordered iWork with my iMac and it was pre-installed, and came with an iWork CD as well.

No manual though.
