NO! NT is still 32. Merced will bring the dawn of 64 bit to NT.

U.S. Aug budget deficit fell to $11.17 bln

WASHINGTON, Sept 22 (Reuters) - The U.S. government posted a budget deficit of $11.17 billion in August, down sharply from a deficit of $35.19 billion in the same month of last year, the Treasury Department said on Tuesday.

Through the first 11 months of fiscal 1998, which ends on Sept. 30, the government has posted a surplus of $31.82 billion -- a sharp turnaround from the comparable period of fiscal 1997 when it was running a deficit of $71.90 billion.

Isn't the big difference that NT is a 64 bit OS and Win 98 still 32 bit?
The important difference is that NT runs different processes in different protected areas of the memory while Win95 can allow one process to step all over another. Microsoft could make a 64bit Win95 but they want to differentiate the market.
