It is not yet officially supported, but Vlad Dumitrescu has got Distel
up and running on Windows a while ago, and Nicolas Charpentier is
currently setting it up. I'm leeching off their troubleshooting work
to find out what needs to be done to make it work out of the box :-)

Since Erlang runs on Windows, there shouldn't be any problem running
the whole thing on the one box. Distel itself is happy to talk to any
number of Erlang nodes on any machines at the same time.
