I run Linux on my Windows 7 system using a virtual machine. This works fine because I have a fairly new core i5 system with lots of RAM and extra disk space and a processor that supports virtualization. If your hardware works it's surely the cheapest way to play around with Linux, and it doesn't require booting and rebooting your main system or using an extra computer and cluttering up your space with multiple keyboards and screens. You can even put the Linux windows and Windows windows up on the same screen and switch back and forth easily. If the Linux system is AFU, you can move over to the Windows system and Google the error messages, figure out which commands to use and then cut and paste these directly into the Linux system. You can't work this easily with two separate computers, or worse, a multi-boot system.
Of course if you are using the Linux system for real time audio, this is not the best way to do things. This is more for learning and becoming facile at configuring, debugging and hacking Linux, which I am still working on.
