Question about cabinet files

I was thinking about putting cabinet files from win95, 98 98se and ME discs on my utilities disc to use on clients computers. However is it worth the worry when I have the original install discs anyway or can use the customers install discs instead? What would be the advantage?

Advantage would be not having to put 3 different discs in a machine, you don't have to worry about what operating system is ( you won't put a 95 disc in the ME machine you are working in and have to pull it out,frustrating> )

Besides, if you have room on the disc, why not? You sound like you'll have that disc with the rest of them anyway, why not use up the available space with something useful.

If you learn how to do OEM preinstalls the cabs get copied over anyways.....
I didn't say it wasn't a PITA though....
