Hi :)
I think a lot of users are going to have problems if they try that. Mostly they have QuickStarter
starting up automatically and also have problems when they try to open different documents in
different versions of OpenOffice/LibreOffice. Advanced users with long years worth of experience
of OOo/Lo might be able to handle it but i think it's bad to give advice that will trip-up most
users on this list.
This link might help most people
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel
it covers most of the things advanced users, such as Andreas, wont think of mentioning when they
post comments such as his previous.
Regards from
Tom :)

This is a rumor. Both suites run fine without any Java. You can check it out when you disable the
use of Java components in the Office options. It is rather unlikely that the avarage user will miss
anything.
_On a Linux system_ you can install as many OOo/LibO suites as you like. I never uninstall anything
before upgrading. If any of the office suites shows unspecific weird behaviour it is always some
broken setting or incompatible extension in the profile folder which is not affected by any
installation routine.
It is possible to run an office suite from extracted package files only without any installation
routines. This way minor releases (3.4.x and 3.4.y) can be used on the same machine.
