Microsft is driving me crazy. I want to change. Will I have trouble with Linux if I'm not a pro? Will all my existing documents work? Is Linux only an operating system? Do I still need to use Windows? Can I try Linux without gettting rid of MS in the first instance?

Advice appreciated.
 
Nope. Linux is not for the faint of heart, even the "Easy to use" Unbuntu Distribution. It is a completely different thing, you won't have MS Word, iTunes, Uninstalling problems is a labor-intensive process (You have to do it manually using command prompts), ...the list goes on. For UBER-Techies and such it is fine, but you will be disappointed guaranteed.
