If you don't already know what flavor of Fedora you want, I would
*strongly* recommend that you download the live images of several
(definitely the "main" gnome image and probably the KDE spin; maybe also
the xfce and/or lxde spins too) and play with them for a while to get a
feel for which you like best *before* you make any changes to your system.
(That said... you *can* install a different desktop later, but you'll
get best results installing the "right" one from the get-go. Also, focus
on the desktop experience, not issues like what web browser or office
suite is used for a particular spin, as it's very easy to install
different ones later. Or, if you have lots of RAM, you can install
additional software in the live session... you'll get a clean slate when
you reboot, though, unless you set up a USB stick with a persistent
overlay.)
As far as the process, if you don't care about keeping your existing
Windows install and dual-booting, the installer is pretty straight forward.
