You don't have to build a dedicated PC or even upset your Windows PC with a dual-boot option to try out Linux.
If you’ve thought about trying Ubuntu or its lower-grunt-requiring
sibling, Xubuntu, but haven’t had a spare PC to throw it on and you
have wanted to do more than use a live CD, one simple way is to build a
virtual PC.
A virtual PC is basically a PC made entirely out of software.
To an operating system, it runs and operates as if it were hardware
but the beauty of it is that the whole thing resides as a series of
files on your PCs hard drive. [from www.darrenyates.com.au ]
