Is it possible to have more than one version of Excel running?

Is it possible to have more than one version of Excel running on the same machine?

We have a Vista laptop running Office 2007. I'll admit I don't really like the newer suite, as I can't get used to the ribbon, and hate having to hunt for items when I know exactly where they are on 2003

Apart from Excel, I only use Word and Outlook. Word I can manage in 2007, and Outlook seems quite similar to it's 2003 counterpart, so I can manage this too

Excel however, I simply can't get on with in it's new form. Also, we've got 2003 at work, and although there's compatibility modes, I am finding issues moving from 2007 to 2003 and vice versa

So, the bottom line is, is it possible to use 2003 and 2007 on the same machine, or will I need to move the whole suite to 2003?

(of course, either way, there's now the expense of getting 2003 as well! Argh!)
