There are times when having the ability to have both is quite handy - e.g. to install an earlier version of the 32 bit edition when you think something has gone adrift in the latest version of the 64 bit edition.
I have the luxury of being able to avoid Adobe software - on the rare occasion I do need something from them I install it in a VM, use it, and uninstall it. For me, the history of AcrowBat-from-hell and Flash-back crashes left an indelible blot on their copybook.

I actually know that, but damn, it's a pain in the butt when you want to uninstall something. I had Acrobat Pro X. When I dl'ed the latest CC, Adobe INSISTED that Acrobat DC would not overwrite Pro x, and wouldn't interfere. WRONG. Suddenly, I had a "trial" for XI on my computer, X had been uninstalled or d/c'ed, and my head is doing the exorcist dance. I tried to uninstall XI, but now, X won't run again. It's incredibly annoying.
