Maybe you should go back and educate them.
I think you will find that you will quickly adapt to RH8 and
would recommend you stick with it. The forum is here if you do get
stuck.
I certainly would not install X5 on a machine with a later
version already on it even with two full licences. In your case, I
wouldn't go there.
If you must have X5 put it on another machine but be aware
you can no longer activate X5. There is a workaround in Snippets on
my site but, as above, I would just stick with RH8. The more you
use it, the quicker you will pick it up.
