Is it practical/possible to set up the ZEO server and two clients, one for requests and one for console debugging, on a WindowsXP Laptop with 1 NIC (DHCP, 1 IP addr and 'localhost')?

Should be, I've done it on a Windows 2000 laptop before...

I need advice on what and where to install various duplicate Zope components when its all going on one machine.

What I'd do is install your Zope base and set up three INSTANCE_HOME's: one for your ZEO storage server one for your ZEO web client one for your ZEO console client

Is Zope 2.6 CVS a better version to run in this context, since there are no production-ready issues here?

No. I'd stick with Zope 2.5.1 and ZEO 1.0 final cheers, Chris
