My technique when trying a (not) new OS is to get another blank hard drive for the computer (usu a Lappy) and get the OS installed on the replacement HD at the local computer fair. This way you keep the old OS as was, with all it's cookies etc and try with the same computer but a different HD. If you like it you keep it if not it's two or three screws an revert to the old installation.

I have done similar with desktops having two HD's fitted and just swapped the master and slave over.

 

I had Xubuntu on an elderly laptop for a while and was really pleased with that.
