Question Adding Unix on my Windows based computer

Hi Everyone...

I am very interested in the Unix/Linux/Knoppix world and would like to eventually become proficient in the programming aspect of it all. Is it possible to use Knoppix in a partitioned drive on my Windows based computer to learn programming in Unix? Or do I need to partition my hard drive and place Unix OS there? I'm thinking Knoppix is based off of Linux which is based off of Minix and then finally Unix. My goals are to learn all I can about network security and add that knowledge to my almost aquired BSBA-IT degree.

Thank you for your help...
