Installing SQL 2005 Developer Edition

| I want to install SQL 2005 developer edition (and want to keep a
default instance of SQL 2000 running on my machine)
Couple of months ago I installed VS.net 2005 edition and it installed
SQL express edition? So I went to Add/Remove programs and removed SQL
express (along with management studio express).
Now, when I started to install SQL 2005 developer edition it is giving
me option for either default instance or named instance. If I select
default instance it won't allow me install because there is already a
default instance for SQL 2000.
Is there any issues installing named instance of SQL 2005? Sometimes
based on my past experience, it is best to install a default instance
because code samples and other things won't work if you install named
instance.
Please advice.

| It's not posible to have SQL Server 2000 default instance and SQL Server
2005 default instance on the same machine. One of them should be named
instance in this case
