Dreamweaver 8 Trial alongside MX install ?

I am just downloading the Dreamweaver 8 trial now, but I already have a full
copy of Dreamweaver MX installed on my machine. Will it try to upgrade my
original product ? Or will it install as a seperate entity allowing me to
compare the 2 before considering an upgrade ?

DW8 will install into a new directory, having no effect on your previous
versions.

No. It's a full version which installs into its own folder and leaves your
current version alone in its own folder.

Yes. And you can still run DW8 and MX on your machine independently (but not
simultaneously).
