Suggestions on virtual software

I am using windows 7 and I would like to try out the new ubuntu on it but dont want a dual boot. I was thinking of running it on vmware or virtual box or something like that.
What do you guys suggest?
Also, since I am just trying it out, don't want to buy anything as the company will not allow it.

Thank you.

Sun Virtual box. It's free to download here Downloads - VirtualBox . I've got ubuntu set up on it right now, just haven't had time to play with it in a few weeks.
Hope this helps.

I'm running BackTrack 4 (Debian 5 Linux ,the same as Ubuntu) in VMWare Player 3 on Windows 7 Pro 64-bit on an Asus netbook (4GB RAM) and it all runs fine.
