        Nope, I'm going completely back to WFW 3.11, same set-up as on my
510. Sort of a retro-techno thing I want to try this year, and see how
it works. If I can't take it when the new year rolls around, I'll go
ahead an upgrade to a 560X with Windows 98 and do a happy dance.
Hopefully, things will work out.
        Note: Careful when formatting your disk on the 560. I found that,
without the Thinkpad Features program installed, I was locked into the
APM and other settings I'd made before removing the OS. Sucked big
time until I got 95 back on.
