    Can you still use BB1 if you downloaded BB2?

    yep, it's a known issue. should've asked before installing BB2.:)

    Anyway, to run both:
    1. uninstall all BB software (in my case - BB2 wouldn't uninstall, had to do it on safe-mode)
    2. install BB1 (don't check "create desktop icon" etc)
    3. rename the the folder (program files/Buildbox to program files/BB1 or whatever)
    4. install BB2 (don't check "create desktop icon" etc)
    5. now you can go to the installation folders (both 1 &2 ) and created a desktop shortcut for both.

    This can be accomplished by using the additional /DIR parameter and specifying the installation directory:

    c:\>Buildbox-2.0-BETA-Win.exe /DIR="e:\BB\BB2Beta"
