Hi Magic!
Well, as you saw in my recent thread here, I'm also using Linux (although I still mainly use Windows) and installed it for my girlfriend recently.
You must know that there are several so called distributions around which are created by different people or companies. Basically, they all offer the core Linux and a graphical user interface (the most common GUIs [also called X-servers] are KDE and Gnome). Together with the basic OS, you get a collection of free software, which comes in so called packages on the CD/DVD. Each of these packages can be installed, removed and reinstalled separately at any time (they are also being updated from the internet). For this task, different distributions often bring their own package installers (although the underlying software is often the same). Now, the distributions mainly differ in the compilation of software included and the way to administrate the system.
One of the most user friendly, stable and easiest for beginners is Kubuntu, which I installed on Carhiths PC and which the_kay (as far as I know) also uses. The CD or DVD you can download usually is bootable and allows you to run Linux without the need to install it at all. It is just very slow (because everything is loaded from CD/DVD instead of the harddrive) and you can't save any settings unless you create a floppy disc for settings storage or something. The purpose is to test it and see if you like it. If you do, you can easily install it by clicking at a button on the desktop.
You can download Kubuntu here. In case you don't have a download limit or something and are able to burn DVD images, I would recommend you to download version 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) on DVD (you must scroll down and skip the CD download locations to find the DVD download locations at the buttom of the screen).
Just give it a try and see if you like it! Basic questions, you might have, can of course be solved by the FAQ or documentation on the homepage. In case of problems, the_kay or myself are probably able to help you.

Wise words Cee.
Becareful MG! It is best to try on another pc or if you have a spare hard drive
install that,unplug the normal HD and see how you get on with it.
You will be looking at a lot of forums and doing a lot of copy and pasting
of codes off of the internet to get everything working right.
LInux is cool and if you do get it to work with your hardware,you will enjoy
doing it.
But it is not like any MS operating system,it not as easy to install as XP etc.

Hi Magic!
Don't get confused, you can try the bootable CD/DVD without any risk! Your system won't be altered in any way!
Just if you plan to install it to your harddrive, you must be a little careful not to change or delete any partitions that contain Windows data. Before continuing with this, you should get familiar with the Linux style of HD/partition naming like /hda, /hda1, /hdb, /hdb1, etc.
When you are at this step, just ask back here and we'll help you.
Give the CD/DVD a try, really!
