Windows Vista 64-bit is the standard Operating System present in the system. But as Windows 7 is to come out on 23rd October 2009, then Dell has offered its users that they would provide a free upgrade service to the new OS. The user has to pay only the shipping charge of the CD. There’s a metal plate provided on the underside of the anodized steel chassis and users can engrave them with whatever they like in both your native alphabet and in the alien language too. All sorts of other heavy customization can be done on this machine according to user preference when you order the machine online. The idea behind is that the machine will be ready to go to your needs as soon as it is taken out of the box.
