SPUG:Term::ReadKey on Windows 2000

Has anyone gotten Term::ReadKey to install on a windows box?  I've
seen reference to a TermReadKey.ppd and ReadKey.dll, but I havn't
found how to make them work.  Have you?  

Does anyone know why such an important module (to cpan.bat, at least)
doesn't install easily on Windows machines?

Thanks,
Michael Wolf

P.S.  These Unix-centric and compiler-dependent Perl modules are
starting to really affect my productivity (i.e. tick me off and
prevent my progress) on a Windows machine.  I'll post more about this
later.  In general, however, is there anyone out there who's as happy
with Perl on Windows as they are with Perl on Unix?  (BTW - This is
*not* the same question as "are you as happy with Windows as you are
with Unix").
