Oh, as to whether it is "worth" getting it, since it is free and requires only a few minutes to download and burn to a CD and then about half an hour to install and set up, I'd say it's worth anyone's time to try. You can always get rid of it if you find you don't like it. You can even try it without installing but just putting the CD in the drive.
By the way, you want Ubuntu to start off with. There are many kinds of Linux, but Ubuntu is the easiest to use and set up.
