HIGHLY recommend using Virtual Box to test out different distros. It's incredibly fun to fire up virtual machines in a matter of moments. I've found I truly do get the feel for the "right" distros very quickly. No need to endlessly boot from live CDs on a physical machine. VMs are vital experience as it is, so for me it's a no-brainer.

Yeah, In the class I made a disk partition in my laptop, but Im starting to think that it will be easier and faster just to use the virtual machine to discover new distros
