If you dont want to "install" Linux but want to check it out, go here 
http://www.dxzone.com/cgi-bin/dir/jump2.cgi?ID=11057

It's a remastered version of Knoppix, a cd-bootable form of Linux.  It 
will let you run Linux on your computer, whithout having to install it 
for one, and secondly, this guy took it a step further and made it a 
usable distrubution for Ham's buyt laoding it wup with all kinds if 
Linux Amateur Radio software, including Xastir.
