Download Fedora or Ubuntu media
Hi,
Welcome to forum! Currently Fedora and Ubuntu Linux seems to quite hot amount the new Linux users. Have you downloaded ISO files? Ubuntu Linux : Download Ubuntu | Ubuntu Fedora Linux: Fedora Project Since you are going to work with fedora, I suggest getting fedora only. For 32 bit computer select i386 media (such as P3 / Celeron) . For 64 bit computer select x86_64 media (such as AMD 64 bit, Intel Dual core, Xeon etc).

You could do your new employer a favor and get them to switch to Ubuntu.

Try ubuntu since it is linux-based operating systems. You can download it for free. If you need to know more about it you can go to their website or search at any search engine.

my 2 cents?
download a live cd distro. any livecd of desktop genre and leave others. get your feet wet. learn to navigate filesystem using command line. get used to the GUI and also popular M$ alternatives from opensource projects. then: install and just for sake of jobs if you want to learn linux? well, you know what your boss wants from you. so you are in a self help self learn ringtone.
