Default Is it possible to apply conditional formating to a pivot chart?

Pivot charts are a real bummer with formatting. Any change to the underlying
table resets the formatting. Microsoft admits that it's a problem, and the
problem persists from Excel 2000 through 2003:

I saw a similar question that asked about applying conditional formatting
to
a chart, and i tried applying that "technique" to a pivot chart, but it
didn't return the same results.

Does anyone know if it's possible to actually apply the conditional
formatting to a pivot chart?

Thanks!
