Gee. I wish it were just that. You can't have multiple versions of a DLL
installed either, so it doesn't provide proper support for a _single_ user
either (whether they call it "Workstation", "Server", "2000" or whatever).

_single_ application, _single_ user would be more appropriate. Wait no,
not even _single_ app (unless maybe if it comes from Redmond, too).
