Some time back, I got the idea of burning a copy of 98SE. I use it on a laptop which,
at the time, I was using to help aim satellite dishes. I knew that there was every
excellent chance of breaking the copy I needed to carry with me, so burning a "field
copy" and leaving the original safely at home was the way to go.
Strangely enough, I have yet to break the "field copy".
