Hi Al;
Try this software:
http://www.vmware.com/
With it you can run linux in a window in your micro$oft system. It's a
virtual machine, very good.
You don't need to reboot your machine or create new partitons in your harddisk.
Just run two or more operating systems in the same machine in the same time.
I'm using it with the Knoppix linux version and with the "Knoppix Brasilian
version", Kurumin.
This linux versions runs on CD or you can install in the harddisk.
www.knoppix.org -~ 700mb
www.kurumin.org - ~200mb
Regards,
Rubens
