What if you want both? I do not use Lightroom but I do use Dreamweaver -
and I have two versions (the newer is a beta still). I mostly use the beta
for my day to day use but I teach classes based on the old ones - so I have
need for both.
I recently upgraded to MS Office 2008. I kept my older version around for a
few days to make sure the new one was as good as the old (takes some getting
used to but I think it is... not that I use anything other than Entourage
much).
I would be disappointed if I could not do that with other software.

*Maybe* as an option in the installer - that is what MS Office on the Mac
did.

Heck, I do zero button automatic backups of my whole drive... that is a
bigger deal than backing up a DVD.

I agree that is a weakness of Safari.

As an option... maybe a good thing. But my computer should not delete a
program I do not tell it to!

Makes sense to not have it so easy to accidently delete a file.
