Hey Josh,

The easiest way to try out Linux without pain is to use Knoppix live
CD.  It's a full Debian distribution that runs completely from the CD
and doesn't touch your hard drive at all.  Go here:

Check it out...it's pretty slick.

I would try installing Linux on my laptop but I have XP home edition and the Toshiba installation disks won't let me partition my hard drive.  I don't want to get rid of Windows because I have Windows software that I want to run.
