[Simply Computers] My new Acer AM3970-ES30P what to do first?

 

Finally got a new computer $429.86 CDN + tax, on sale, to replace this 11 year old dinosaur. Currently have dial-up internet.

Will not be able to have DSL until the end of the month and am wondering if I should turn it on and make the restore disks before I get it hooked up to the internet or wait. The saleswoman told me to wait as it would want to update Windows 7 and that any DVDs would be OK. I got Staples brand DVD+R. Have never had a new modern computer (DOS baby) so am not sure how to proceed. Please advise. Specs below.

Thanks in advance
Sue
