An online tour is a simpler way out. Also a movie buff with a soft corner for film noir. Is it great, but I think that OnWorks is better. All the Linux features can be tested for free using OnWorks.

The trial one I have in my system has a lot to be desired.
Can both be kept as operating systems to switch back and forth? When you boot a live session of Ubuntu using the "Try Ubuntu" option with bootable installation media, it is almost the same as an installed version of Ubuntu. The main difference is that a live session is loaded into RAM and is not actually installed to your hard drive.
The live session also doesn't retain any changes unless you have set up persistence. This means when you are using a live session, when you reboot, any changes you made during the last session will not be saved. When you actually install Ubuntu, the performance is often better because accessing files on your hard drive is typically faster, especially if you have a SSD.
With Ubuntu installed, you can also perform updates, install software, configure settings, and make changes that will persist after a reboot. The live or try system is running from a squashfs which means your system needs to unsquash the files before they can be used, this can mean the system performs slower than a real install, however the difference will vary on what hardware you have real disk, ssd, cpu etc as Nmath said :.
You can use a live system anytime you wish, in fact I keep my thumb-drives as some tasks are far easier from live media than my installed system, eg. This allows me to test out ideas first, before I try on my real installed system and risk needing to spend time fixing a mess I created. I prefer using my installed system as it's fully configured to my tastes, where as live media boots up completely fresh. If you want to save configs on live media you can do that too via the use of persistence I use mkusb.
Yes you can use both. Ubuntu can be installed to a USB in different ways. A Live install does not save between sessions. A Persistent install extracts the OS from a compressed file and saves data to an overlay file or partition each session, and a Full install installs the complete OS to the USB just like an install to internal disk.
If you have problems or wish to modify, the solution is the same as with an internal install, You can ask for help in the forums. Many persistent installs are limited to a 4GB casper-rw and a 4GB home-rw persistence file, to get more persistence requires persistence partitions. Once casper-rw is full, the drive will not boot. More stable, better for day to day use. I have run Ubuntu off a flash drive for 5 years making only LTS upgrades. Note that once booted, both methods run at about the same speed.
