An updated list of known spectroscopic double-line and single-line Galactic Wolf-Rayet binaries is presented. From this we discuss e.g. mass ratios, the binary frequency and the evidence for low-mass unseen (compact?) companions. Spectroscopic binary orbits of several WR stars in the Magellanic Clouds are noted for the first time.
