To have a look, without wasting money on a new hard drive, you could try
making an install that runs off a USB flash drive.  They're cheap, and
immediately re-useable, if you don't thrash it to death with your test.

Sure, a live DVD could give you a trial look, too.  But it's such a
painfully slow medium.

George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not
a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
