How do i set up Linux as a second operating system?

[Barbaraeks]

Hi I am so accustomed to using Microsoft's operating systems but i would like to get used to using Linux. I know that you can have to operating systems on a PC.
Do I need extra memory to run Linux along side windows or do I need to add more memory. And How do I install Linux and boot it on start up of my P|C

Check out Wubi, a very easy way to get Ubuntu running on your Windows PC. You want at least 1GB of RAM and preferably 2GB or more.
