Take any flavor of vista over and above the basic one.
I was visiting and educational discount software vendor who had vista
ultimate for just over 100.

It's possible, but I think unlikely that you'll see Windows 7 on the
shelf next Christmas, so you're looking at two years. That's a long
time in computers, and hardly makes the current Windows version "soon
to be abandoned". Even if they do make the 10/1/09 release date, it's
still a whole year away.
Besides, Windows 7 is to be based on Vista, so learning to use Vista
now will give anyone a leg up on Win7. There's really nothing wrong
with Vista, once one gets over any hardware trouble, which shouldn't
be a factor in a new factory-built unit, especially a laptop.
I just gave the wife a new HP x64 laptop for (early) Christmas, and
she loves Vista. Not much fun for *me* to set up, but that's only
because I'm a nerd anyway. :)
