It's supposed to be appearing in preloaded configurations around June. I worded 
the previous post badly and may have (probably did) give the impression that if 
you go out and buy a new copy then you'll get the "new, improved" FAT. This is 
unlikely to happen until the (very large) stocks of Win95 that are already in 
the distribution channels are exhausted.

In your case I wouldn't bet on Evesham having it by June, as it'll be the major 
OEM's like Dell, Compaq, etc that get it first. May take a few months longer to 
reach small companies like Evesham (but I'm just guessing here).
