Question from Andrew: Asked on 04/10/2010 The Product Summary tab says "Operating System - Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit)" whereas the Tech Spec tab says "Operating system provided Genuine Windows® 7 Professional 64-bit". Clearly at least one is wrong! Can you please confirm which operating system this machine comes with.
