Welcome to the dark side. Hmm. Scratch that. Welcome to the enlightened side. 
Anyway, if your computer is now a dual boot machine, you may want to add another flavor of Linux and make it triple boot. Installing Kubuntu Linux with its KDE interface is easy and you'll feel right at home because it is also a lot like Windows.
Although there are some technical issues to hurdle, once you get past that, Kubuntu Linux is a good everyday use operating system. Of course, Ubuntu Linux is a reliable workhorse so when some features are not automatically available in Kubuntu, Ubuntu will come to the rescue.
Incidentally, you can read the Ubuntu partition from Kubuntu and vice versa. Of course, both can read the Windows partition so you have full use of your entire hard disk.

The only effective way to learn linux seriously is to join their forums.There are many users of ubuntu all around the world including me, your get chances to discuss questions related to ubuntu and users responds upto your expectations.Apart from that you can download blackbook of linux os if you want to understand the internal coding and working of it.
Happy Mylotting......
