Running 2000 and 2005 Reporting services on a single server

I've got SQL server 2000 running on a W2003 server and I want to install SQL Server 2005 and reporting services.  Is there a way to run both of then.  I'd like to have access to both for development purposes.

Thanks,

    Just be sure to install in a different instance.

    I am running both on same server.  SQL 2005 instance is referenced by localhost\SQL2005 & http://localhost/reportserver$sql2005/

    Virtual PC is a good option for this too.

    There's a section in Books On Line called Working with Multiple versions of SQL Server that could help.
