Installing Linux on a separate drive is probably a better bet. I'll admit I didn't have much trouble with it, but I dual booted Windows 8.1 with Linux, not 10, and my understanding is it has only gotten fuckier.
In either case you may wish to "test the waters" by installing and running Linux in a virtual machine or on a thumb drive at first, to take it for a test drive and see if you can live with it.
