I do have linux but I don't use it as much. I like Windows more because I can just buy come junk computer for about $200-$300...use it for like a 2-3 years and then throw it away and get another brand new computer. However, getting back to linux...I think it's a very good OS...and it is good to keep...

Yeah, I met a guy in the Best Buy store, he said that Linux didn't get viruses, so he installed it on my computer. Had it for a year, hadn't gotten a virus since! Didn't need to purchase anti-virus protection like I did Windows. It was a good investment, as he only charged me 300 bucks for the copy. =)

Try running the live CD. If you don't like it, it has no effect on your computer whatsoever, but if you do like it, than you can instal it right form there.
