Anomoly you can download it for free, and its not ilegal, there are several Torrents on torrentspy.com and torrentreactor.com , i just downloaded version 10 of SuSe Linux, give it a try!
If you havent never used linux before, i would recommend you to download Knoppix, its a Linux OS that boots from the cd-rom, and voila you have a complete linux os on the fly, just reboot and return to your original operative system

if you guys wanna try out new OSs i recommend getting partition magic for windows and just partitioning your hard drive. make a partition just for your important files just incase a new OS messes up your windows or original OS install. tis what i do, i have tried out about 6 linux distro's thus far like this. great way to see what else is out there and break the windows chains. my current fav linux distro is knoppix STD.

SuSe installation lets you resize the windows partition, no need for partition magic

What video card do you have ? if its very recent you would need to download the drivers, recompile the kernel, or patch it... its sucks 
Thats the one big drawback of Linux , theres barely any support from the big manufacturers of hardware, and installing software is a bitch
