windows 7 - How do you restore a crashed computer without removable media?

I have a notebook (the free Steve Sinofsky PDC09 Acer) with Win7 and no removable media slots and no external CD or DVD drive. The hard drive crashed and is now in an unbootable state. It didn't come with an install or recovery disk (not that there would be any place to insert it) but I can download Win7 ISO images from MSDN. I do have USB drives of various types and sizes. How can I recover this notebook?
