I've got Ubuntu running on a virtual machine right now, so that I can invest some time getting used to it, trying to complete generic tasks and seeing what software I need, what can and can't be replaced easily, without affecting my main OS. Just get my feet wet and make it less unfamiliar.

A prudent approach
Unless you depend on very specialized software, you can get a good alternative to whatever windows only stuff you use
Or just run it via wine, works great
