Hi everyone,
  Has anyone had any luck finding a NT 4.0 power management driver for the 
ThinkPad 701? IBM supports Suspend Mode and some minimal but useful power 
management for NT 4.0 in the newer model of ThinkPad but none for the 701. You 
may think that I am crazy running NT on my 701 but the stability and robustness 
outweighs Windows 95 for my application. The only thing that's missing is a 
little power management so I can suspend the machine without having to shut it 
down and go through the long boot process every time. Standby mode just doesn't 
do it when I am on the move for hours. SystemSoft has a OEM development toolkit 
(only to laptop OEMs) for doing power management in NT 4.0 but it's for OEMs 
only and not for sale to the public. If you have any information please post it 
or send me an email. Thanks.
