If  you are interested to try out a Linux OS on your own Windows PC, we  recommend to install Linux Ubuntu Desktop 10.10 (http://www.ubuntu.com).  You can install Ubuntu onto a computer alongside a copy of Windows. You  will be able to select whether to start Ubuntu or Windows each time  your computer starts up or you can try to run Ubuntu on a CD alongside  your current system.
