What a waste of an afternoon.  I've spent several hours trying to install
WDSC 7 on my development machine here.  I've tried everything.  And then,
just for the fun of it, I tried to install on my game machine.  And guess
what?  It works fine there.  Just not on my work machine.

Some more digging and it seems as though the Installation Manager isn't
compatible with Windows Server 2003 X64.  ARGH!  I get a "Widget disposed
too early!" error which as far as I can tell indicates that the SWT bundled
with the system doesn't work on X64.

I'd love to be proven wrong, but as far as I can tell, Windows Server 2003
x64 is not supported.  ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH.

And in case you're wondering, the documents say Windows Server 2003
Enterprise Edition is supported, with no wording one way or the other about
32-bit vs. 64-bit.  Not only that, but the software actually does a check of
the OS prior to installing, so if X64 wasn't supported, that would have been
a good time to let me know.

Chalk up another Saturday down the tubes...
