Multiple SDK versions on a single computer?

Has anyone tried installing both the CE9 and CE10 SDKs on the same computer, and used them both with success?

I'm not talking about installing the full CE product--the idea would be that one machine could host two different applications. Each app is configured to pass requests to a different CE server, one v9 and one v10. Each of these apps would have it's own code to create and utilize CE SDK objects function calls, so one would have CE9 code and one CE10 code.

If the code were written in VB or an ASP page, one app might use:
Code:
Set objectFactory = CreateObject("CrystalReports10.ObjectFactory.1")

Another would use:
Code:
Set objectFactory = CreateObject("CrystalReports9.ObjectFactory.1")

And clearly, if both SDKs are not on the machine, one call will fail with a message like "ActiveX Can't Create Object"...which is why I'm wondering if I'll wreck one of my development servers by installing a second SDK on it. :)
