Actually considering MS's history with OS the safe money would be that it will not be released until sometime in 2007 at the earlier and of course in 3 years any laptop bought today will be FAR from being a gaming machine. Hell look at laptops, and even desktops, from 3 years ago and you will see how pathetic they seem compared to todays products.
My desktop has an Athlon64 in it, not because at some point in the distance future a 64 bit OS and programs might be available for it, but instead I got it for it's gaming performance today.
