Tried that.  I don't have any 2.5" to 3.5" adapters, so couldn't put it
in a desktop machine (and my only PeeCee desktop machine is, errm, weird
so a standard install might not have worked anyway).  Tried another
laptop, but the disk in that one had a weird interface dongle attached.
That wouldn't come off even with quite a bit of force and I was afraid
that if I really put some muscle into it I'd just pull the IDE connector
off the board.

  It would be reasonable to judge cannabis less of a threat to health
  than alcohol or tobacco ... this should be borne in mind by social
  legislators who, disapproving of other people's indulgences, seek
  to make them illegal.
