A quick scan of the registry makes it look to me like the main issue is that
py3k would take over the .py, .pyo, .pyc extentions, which is not a big 
deal.
Reinstalling 2.5 (in place) would fix that.

The only other potential issue is the uninstall icon for 2.5 disappearing. 
However
a quick test shows that the design of the installer prevents this potential 
issue.

So everything looks fine to me. I have both instaled at the moment, and it 
looks fine to me.
