Win95 vs. NT 4 on Thinkpad



With the recent announcement of NT 4.0 availability, I am pondering 
installing NT 4.0 on my thinkpad ( certain applications I need won't 
run under Win95 ).  The only problem is that Microsoft seems to be 
back peddleing on that availability of the notebook power support and 
the plug and play support.

I noticed that Digital is shipping NT 4.0 with its top of the line 
notebooks.  I can only assume that they have written proprietary 
support.  Has anybody heard anything from Mircosoft, IBM, etc. about 
the availability of these features for older IBM Thinkpad ( e.g. my 
755cx ).  I would prefer to upgrade, but I don't want to wait for 
Cairo like Microsoft suggests.

Looks like Microsoft has done it again.  I am caught between a rock 
and a hard place.  Any input would be appreciated.  After all, I may 
be missinterpreting the trade rags.  I would be interested in hearing 
some pros and cons on Win95 vs. NT 4.0 for Thinkpads.
