I think the biggest reason for the wait is that the new windows will be a 32 bit system, but that is only a guess. But it makes sense to me. Like stated in order to improve on FS you would almost have to use a 34 bit operating system to handle the task as a 16 bit system would give undesireable results.
The only thing i am not sure of if you will need a 64 bit cpu in order to run it. Right now Intell does not have a true 64 bit cpu, They do have a dual core cpu that emulates a 64 bit cpu.
And AMD has a 64 bit cpu but I do not know if this will work with the new system. I guess we will just have to wait and see.
