If I order a BTO MBA tomorrow, will it come with ML?

Did anybody notice that on the Apple.com/store webpage when you select the Macbook Air, it says "Included Software: Mountain Lion" now? Was it like this before? Does it mean that every Mac comes with ML because they still have that "up-to-date" information meaning some could have it, some not.

Anyone notice that the section labeled Software in an item's description in the shopping cart has now changed from OS X Lion to simply OS X? I wonder if that's them recognizing they have no idea which version of OS X you'll actually get
And right now it's changed to OS X Mountain Lion! So I guess if from now on it's pretty much guaranteed that you'll get ML preinstalled.
BTW, is there any price difference between getting the iWork apps preinstalled or through the Mac App Store? Or just convenience?
convenience really. Price is the same whether you buy them from the MAS or pre-installed. Perhaps if you don't always have a great internet connection it'd be worth it to get them pre-installed though. Or if you have a super low data cap on your home connection. All the apps are a little under 1gb to download
Damn. I can only take solace in the fact that if I had ordered it today, I wouldn't get it in time for school and I'd be stuck with a slow@$$ Powerbook, which seems to sense I'm replacing it b/c it's been painfully slow this week. Everything I press takes forever.
Maybe we're slower to catch up, but the shopping cart in the Canadian Apple store still says simply OS X (as of right now, anyway).
