great. To break the ice, you can have a taste of it installing it on a USB pen drive or a USB external hard disk, and boot from there without installing or touching your internal hard disk. I recommend you to use one with KDE which has an interface more similar to Windows than others. Maybe it won't be as fast as installing it on your system but you can use it and see if you like it and have all apps you need. So you can always return to Windows as if nothing happened :)
