It's very easy. Earlier this year I worked on online help for a product 
that had three different versions, depending on role (user, user 
administrator, system adminsitrator). I had to produce both online help 
and a printed manual. I ended up with 14 conditions to handle all the 
variations. 80 conditions is a bit extreme, but I can easily imagine a 
scenario where you'd need them - though I'd be looking for alternatives 
myself.
