For a developer I would recommend using virtual machines as William suggested. That is the way I work with Office 2007. I have played a little with Virtual PC 2003 and VM ware. From my limited experience VM Ware seems to be the way to go even though you have to pay for it. For a product I'd go with a run time with it's own installer built around Sagekey scripts. Their new scripts get rid of the reinstall problem with Access 2007. For what its worth.

How long does your 'reinstall' take when you switch?

I have no problems with it except for the "installing" process when I switch between versions. FYI, I have also had a client that I had to convert to 2007 accdb format because the 2003 mdb kept corrupting.
