I used to do it pretty often on tartina, my old win98 laptop (which is 
why I didn't even ask to be considered as one of the MSVC 7 giftees 
back when MS offered -- I knew VS 7 doesn't run on win98).  But since 
July I haven't really worked on any Windows contracts -- it's been 
mostly Linux (with some prospect of Mac OS X now on the horizon) -- and 
tartina's batteries have been nearly dead (RIP) so it's not very usable 
anymore on trips &c...
