b.special {
	font: 17px times;
	font-weight: 600;
	color: #0000a0;
}

b.special span {
	font-size: 12px;
	color: #800000;
	font-style: italic;
}

<b class="special">X<span>w</span>SCAN</b>

Tested in NN4 & 6, IE5.5, Opera 5, all Win98. The font size is not exactly 
the same, but near enough. Maybe the small 'w' should get font-weight: 300, 
decide for yourself.
