    I think for most people, including myself, it seems daunting. Especially since I’ve used this environment for close to thirty years. Additionally, I don’t have money to buy extra hardware to experiment with.

      A dual boot setup doesn’t require any extra hardware. Hell, you can run some Linux distros directly from a USB drive if all you want to do is play with it and try to learn some things.

      My switching to Linux felt a lot like the transition from Windows 95 to XP, or XP to 7. Linux Mint genuinely felt more familiar to me than Windows 8 did. You can try out Linux, learn about it, experiment with it, in VirtualBox. Install a Linux machine in a file right on your Windows machine. I think it’s wroth at least trying out.
