Hi, If you uninstall the OSE edition you'll keep your VMs (unless you've been messing with the source/installation they are inside the .VirtualBox folder inside your $HOME). I am not sure but i don't believe it's possible to have both installed, because of the kernel modules (maybe if you have them on non default places and manually load the relevant ones depending which version you want to run - just guessing here :)
