It will either be some version of Vista, or 7 if it's publically available then
7 is signifigantly faster than vista as they have really reworked how the OS handles memory... its a lighter OS with less overhead. How applications work hasn't changed so Vista programs will work no problem in 7. However, the crappy as hell interface of vista remains.
