Another good resource for those who want to play with Linux without committing a box to it. And "pre-configured" always has a nice ring to it.

No need to set up space, "boot" from a live CD and mess around with hardware config, as copies of Fedora, Ubuntu, OpenSUSE and others are ready to run. Not all of them are free, with a few of the multi-GB distros asking for a buck or two to cover server costs, but a good number of interesting variants and betas are there for the taking. <A href="http://www.virtualbox.org/">VirtualBox</A> runs on Windows, Mac, or Linux, and is a free download.
