I am creating a downloadable install for some IE plugin type features using IS Dev 7.
I would like to use MSI, but have avoided it because we need to support 98 & 95 and we want to keep our package as small as possible.
Question is - does anyone have experience with the ratio of users who have MSI installed ?
Does MSI get installed on 98 with any of the IE updates / service packs that Win 98 users could be expected to have installed.
Our user-base will be in the US, and will generally be slightly more on the tech savvy side of the user spectrum.

IE doesn't install MSI as far as I know.
MS Office does, and many other applications, too. However maybe an old version, so you may need to update it.
Windows Me/2000/and XP include MSI.
You could use a bootstrapper that would download the msi runtime only if required.
