Richard,

fully agreed. More or less, this was also my motivation to switch over.

As only you can precisely know what will worl ok for you, I suggest to
simply start and see by installing Linux on top of your existing windows.

Without any risk, you can easily use virtualbox for the task.

Then, one by one, you can try out Linux without having the risk of
destroying what you have..

And if the day comes, you will be able to fully switch confidently and
easily.

Then after this day, you will be able to do it "vice versa" and install
Vista on top of Ubuntu, just for the few cases, where you prefer Windows.

Kind regards
Eberhard
