    You can burn the image to a DVD-R 4.7 gb dont use a DVD-RW they don't always work.

    Set your Bios to boot from CD/DVD drive.

    Then you can run off the CD to test the OS to see if you like it.

    No persistence.

    Remove CD and your back to windows.

    If you like you can choose install while running off Disk.

    I have a fairly Good Computer but still choose XFCE over Cinnamon. The speed is instant.
    try Cinnamon though if you have a good moden computer.

    A custom Cairo-Dock Makes it.

    a Looksie heres my Cairo-Dock......... the Highly Customable animations are amazing on hover or click with OpenGL.

    I use Linux Mint, I run all Windows software with no worries using Playonlinux a front for Wine.

    Install Wine first then Playonlinux from the software centre.

    Im running Windows Incredible Pro Charts fine and can play games like Windows Rift and PathofExile no worries at all.

    You can learn about Playonlinux with youtube
