Hi......... need some advise.

Currently my system is runnnig on Win98.......
Can't afford to install a Linux OS coz software in PC is used for everyday
work.

But want to try out Linux.........

Would it be feasible if I install Linux on my Zip drive (which I currently
have) and
make it boot from there. In this case, I will not "touch" my current
harddisk......

What do you think?
Is this feasibel??
