Q. I want to download linux to my pc. Which is the best and most popular version to use?
A. To begin with I recommend looking at a LiveCD.
There are two worth taking an immediate look at being Linux Mint 6 and Ubuntu 9.04
Linux is now in a position of offering a viable alternative to proprietary platforms and more than capable of offering a full desktop experience.
Install or RUN IT LIVE !

You download the ISO. image of either Linux Mint 6 or Ubuntu 9.04 then you need to create a Bootable CD from the ISO. This can easily be done using Nero Burning ROM or similar software. Linux Mint 6 and Ubuntu 9.04 can also be run straight from the LiveCD you have created without touching your Hard Drive.

How to remove "linux mint" from my Win7 GRUB screen?
Q. I recently ran linux mint form a usb drive, but I decided that I don't like it. Ever since, as soon as I power on my computer, I have to choose to boot into Windows 7 or Linux mint. Some tutorials I saw required a repair disk to boot into command prompt, which I don't have. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
A. What you need to do is rebuild the BCD Store.
That is where that message is coming from.
It is sort of the new and improved bootloader starting
AFTER XP.
That can be a complex process, so lets go at this the
way you already were.
EVERY Win7 system will allow you you to make a "Win7 Repair Disk".
Note it is only for repairs, very important ones, (but somewhat small repairs.)
Please see the following MS link about getting this VERY helpful disk
(while the computer is working...)

See below if link breaks.
