This questions asks it generically, but does anybody know specifically about Lenovo outlet computers?

I want to buy an outlet computer with Windows 7 Home Premium 32, but I would rather have Windows Home Premium 64. Can I use the license I am getting with the outlet laptop to do a clean install of the 64bit version. I know I can't upgrade, I want to do this first thing out of the box when I get the computer.

It seems like it is possible, according to the answer.microsoft.com the key will work for 64bit or 32bit.
