Using linux should only require something called a live boot cd, which boots linux straight from the CD. Ubuntu has one available.
Installing gournal should be a matter of :

apt-get install gournal
or
aptitude install gournal
.

Thanks Amnon. I might give it a try on my spare PC.

Yes, you can use linux on your PC without installing it - Just download the VMWare Player (virtual machine) and Play the image of (e.g.) the Ubuntu O/S. I did it in order to test how my website looks in Mac, which is exactly like it looks on Konkueror.

Challanges:
1. You will have to install Gournal - which I don't know how to do. I'm not a linux expert.
2. Will this configuration support pen recognition? It remains to see.
