I just picked up NT 4.0 and installed it on one of my HP Vectra workstations.  Haven't 
begun to contemplate putting it on my 755 CD, but the CD *does* have Thinkpad drivers 
on the disk and the documentation for 4.0 indicates compatibility with the following 
'Pads: 360CD, 360CE, 365XD, 560, 701C, 750-755-760 series, (all employing the drivers 
contained on the NT 4.0 CD).  Hope this helps.
