Hi,

quick question:

I already have VS 2003 installed on a win xp system.
Can one install VS 2005 Beta on the same system and still
use both of them independantly?

thanks

Yes, you can install VS 2005 Beta along side of VS 2003, but remember, this
is a Beta version and there are no guarentees for clean uninstalls when you
want to install the next Beta or Release Candidate version. Ideally, the
better option is to save your current Win XP setup for released software
versions and use something like Virtual PC 2004 or VM Ware for testing Beta
software.
