I just saw the Mac thread that got locked, and some people mentioned Ubuntu Linux. I've had the discs for a while, but I've put off installing them for one reason.
I use my laptop for work and for home, and at work (and soon enough at school) I need to have Windows, but I'd really like to try out Linux. Here's my question, is it possible to have Ubuntu on one partition, and have windows on another? If so, how do I do this. (Kind of a computer n00b, sorry).
