In this video I show you how to make a virtual Machine using free (open source) software called Virtual Box.
If you don't know what a Virtual Machine is, to put it simply it's a computer in a computer.
"Why would I want to use Virtual Machines?" ... Simple so that you can try an operating system before you install it on your actual machine and also it's useful for testing out software you download from the internet before you put it on your main computer. It's all to stop you from literally "Fucking" up your system.
This software will run on Windows and MAC and even Linux, so don't worry about being not able to use this software.
Here is the link to get Virtual Box
http://www.virtualbox.org/
Also here is the link to get Kubuntu
http://www.kubuntu.org/
Here is the link for Ubuntu

Make sure you save the ISO image file to the desktop, if you want to burn it t disc there is another opensouce program called infra-recorder, I will do a video on this on a later date.

If you don't feel comfortable using Virtual Box I have links to 2 other applications that will allow you to do the same thing.

This is another Virtual Machine application but you have to pay for this one, the site says it is for Mac , but I have heard people can run it in windows, but I'm too sure about Linux

I wouldn't know.
What you need to try and and do is get hold of a coorperate version as the key on that never expires no matter how many times you use it.
