can install all of the Qt5.2 windows builds in one Windows OS?
say something like:
Qt 5.2.0 for Android (Windows 32-bit)
Qt 5.2.0 for Windows 32-bit (MinGW 4.8, OpenGL)
Qt 5.2.0 for Windows 32-bit (VS 2012)
Qt 5.2.0 for Windows 64-bit (VS 2012)
Qt 5.2.0 for Windows 64-bit (VS 2012, OpenGL)

or do I just keep on making billions of Virtual Machines with 1 version on each one?
I mean I'll have to make Virtual Machines for Linux and Mac versions for 5.2.0 already, but it would be
nice to know if I can combine the 5.2's together....

This works but when you're installing it for the install directory you have to put each build in it's own directory...
I went with just adding one more directory describing each one.
Like for example:

C:\Qt\Qt5.2.0\VS2012_64
C:\Qt\Qt5.2.0\VS2012_64_OpenGL
C:\Qt\Qt5.2.0\VS2012_32
C:\Qt\Qt5.2.0\MinGW48_OpenGL

you then have 4 different QtCreators though...
so to call the VS2012_64 one, the path is C:\Qt\Qt5.2.0\VS2012_64\Tools\QtCreator\bin\qtcrea tor.exe

I guess you can install multiple on one machine. I haven't come across any warning in the blog posts not to do so.
Only case was with Qt SDK for Symbian long back... but with newer Qt versions, I don't think there should be any problem.

Also you can use only one Qt Creator and configure multiple Kits for different installations.
