There are hardly any visual/operation differences.  As you pointed out
above, it's in the hardware support.  I just finished building a *really*
new LX-mb machine, and I can't use a LOT of the features because I'm using
win95a (USB, native MMX support, newer PCI bridge routing, etc.)  So in my
case, I *am* loosing a lot by not having 95b.

Well, when you have 10 gigs of drive space split over multiple partitions,
it gets annoying.  :)
