Can Visaal Studio 2005 and Visual Studio 2005 co-exist?

The vast majority of reports (including my own experience) indicate yes.
However, 2005 *is* beta software and you should consider segregating it by
setting it up on a separate PC not used for production work, or on its own
partition in a multi-boot environment or by using a product such as Virtual
PC. That way, if something does go wrong, your regular work won't suffer.

All working happily here! I've got both installed on my main machine quite
happily for production work (starting to do pre-production stuff in 2k5 now).
However, I do have a backup machine running 2k3 in case anything goes
bellyup! :o)
