Orcas and 2005 Editions

I currently have the 2005 express editions installed for C#, C++ and Visual Basic. What do I need to do to install the Orcas after I have downloaded the img files? Do I have to uninstall my 2005 editions to install the Orcas? Can the 2005's and the Orcas run side by side? Finally are the Orca versions in beta or are they fully ready to go like the 2005 versions? Thanks.

You will have to extract the image and run setup.exe in the root directory. No, you do not have to uninstall 2005. Yes, Orcas and 2005 can run Side by Side. Yes, these versions are in Beta...they will not be ready for RTM until later this year.

Hi,

Can ORCAS express run side by side with VS 2003? Thanks.
