I just have one suggestion, paying heed to it or not is totally upon you then. Since you seem to be good at windows, don't take for granted that linux will be easy for you. There will be certain things that will be easier but a certain things seem a lot more difficult as linux is a completely different OS from windows so windows expert's have to do a lot of unlearning. This thing is what makes it rather more difficult for a windows expert.
This thing applies to moving from any OS, to any other OS. It happened with me too, I tried to use FreeBSD, but got stuck quite badly, since I had no clue about a lot of things, thing are quite different in BSDland. So, I've decided to install it in a VM for now and learn it.
