Hi Matthew,

I like the words test drive.

Something that wouldn't scare me so much to "try" would be a menu like:

Ubuntu
- Test Drive Ubuntu (without any change to your computer)
- Install Ubuntu
- [other options]
- [...]

That's something I would try at my desk without fear of harming my
fragile windows setup. Seriously, people who are most likely to switch
to linux are those who are the most fearful of harming their windows
configuration. I can't wait to get our production PC off of winXP, but
we're working on it one step at a time. Messing with that computer is
almost a fire-able offense around here.

:) Chris
