If you plan to continue to use the Palm Desktop PIM application, or you
have a number of 3rd party conduits, you'd be better to install over Palm
Desktop. If you are absolutely sure you won't be using Palm Desktop as a
PIM, nor that you have any 3rd party conduits that you use, you could
completely remove Palm Desktop. It is probably safer to install over Palm
Desktop and then trash the PIM application, help files, etc if you know you
won't be using them.

Short answer: You can do either. (Uninstall PDT then install MS, or install
MS over PDT).
