Windows 7 - 32 or 64 Bit?

All Sony VAIO machines will be shipping with 64bit version of W7 only. There will not be any 32bit OSes on Vaio hardware.

Unless it's a Vaio running an Atom processor, of course... the Atom Z series don't have 64bit instructions, so unless Sony are going to pull the Vaio-X within a month of launching it I'm not sure your information is correct...

Besides, Vaio's really aren't worth the huge mark-up they command over any other similarly specced laptop (he said, typing from a Vaio BX-series laptop)...

I did mean to exclude the Atom stuff. But all of the higher end laptops will run 64bit.
