What is it about 98 that you like that NT doesn't give you? NT 4 and 98
are quite similar in look and feel, and I'd argue that NT is a bit
better in system control.

One thing NT gives me, that 98 doesn't, is a cute little error message
indicating that one of my devices isn't responding.  No mention of which device,
or where to find out.  And everything seems to be working, so no obvious clues.

You mean you don't get more data than you know what to do with when
you go to Administrative Tools and run Event Viewer?  I usually get
enough data to figure out what's going on at least.  Fixing it may be
another problem.
