Hi, I just downloaded Linux(fedora) and I am still a little bit confused about what is going to happen when I install it. Will I still be able to use Windows while I am getting used to Linux...and if so, how do I switch between the two OS's?

haha, sorry I'm a

Yes you can switch between the two os's because of the bootloader that'll be installed by Fedora Core. Either GRUB or Lilo. Nothing much will happen though.

A second pc would be best for beginners, but second best comes installing Linux to a second hard drive (with the Windows drive detached to prevent accidental overwrites). If you're feeling more comfortable, use grub to dual boot the OSses.
