I had 2 PCs. One was running SS 6.5.x and the other was running SS7. I
had both of them pointing to the same directly where all my music is
kept. That means to switch between the 2 all I had to do was tell the
Trasnporter or Squeezbox which IP address to use for the server (in my
case 192.168.0.3 or 192.168.0.4). This is easy once you realise if you
get to the main menu on the player and hold down the left button on the
remote it takes you into the network set-up menu then you just press
right a few time till you get to the IP address of server page then
press up or down to select the PC (and version of SS you want to use).
Of course if you use the latest version of SS it will mean updating the
formware each time you switch. Using a version more than a few days old
will go around this problem.
That was the plan, however, after using SS7 I haven't gone back.
