Hello,

Is it possible to have more then one version of KDE installed and switch between them? I'd like to try out the new KDE but don't want to lose what I have now. Thnx

It is possible. You'll have to follow the directions pretty closely on techbase.kde.org for multi version installs, however I'd recommend doing so on a more "desktop" centric distribution than CentOS, since it has a number of key libraries and services that are far older than KDE 4.2 and greater want. One of a few of which are HAL, Dbus, and Cups. If you do so on CentOS, you might find some features lacking because of this.
