If you have a Brother BE-100 Disc or the installation package you can install it on a windows XP laptop pretty easily you just need to find a dongle adapter possibly a USB to parallel port etc.
If you are trying to get it installed onto a newer laptop or even a newer desktop that Is much harder... I can do it but Its a paid walkthrough. And you would still probably need a usb to floppy to install the fonts... (that i haven't tested on a newer computer) and a parallel to serial. Not sure haven't tried that.
