What can html 4.01 do that xhtml can't?

As the spec [link: ] says, "[XHTML is ]a reformulation of HTML 4 as an
XML 1.0 application"

If i had to pick one to go with, i'd chose XHTML (Transitional,
personally, at this time...)

I'd rather be working with the better technology and have to deal with
'the browser issue' than push HTML 4.01 to the bitter end of its
usefulness/abilities.
