Bobby.  I don't know what the financial situation is like for you but
I have a suggestion.  Think seriously about getting a removable hard
disk drive tray (actually you'll need to get two but you will only use
one frame).  Buy yourself a new hard drive of about 40gb+.  On your
original drive stick with one tried and trusted distro.  This is for
everyday, productive use.  On the second drive try out all the
different distro's.  When you've tired of one wipe it clean and start
afresh with another.  This is how I do things and it's how I learn.

I currently have about half a dozen different drives ranging from
Ubuntu 5.10 together with Kubuntu 5.10 (I should really have simply
downloaded either Gnome or KDE to one or the other of course), Xandros
3, SuSE 9.3, SuSE 10 Eval, Knoppix, Debian Sarge, Vector Linux and
recently the latest Mandriva.  For production purposes I use either
Windows 2000 (because of hardware issues that will be solved fairly
soon) or the SuSE 10 disk.

Doing it this way I do at least have a reference point if something
isn't working at it should prior to asking on here or another forum.

By the way, there is absolutely nothing wrong with asking questions on
here, Peter is just having a grumpy mood :-)))))
