I am currently working in a Windows (XP) environment but if it makes a difference and Linux is more suitable for a Tex environment I move to a Unix based one then. Thanks for the reply.
No problem, there are several windows users on this list. But I don't know which distribution is currently preferred. MikTeX?
I can't speak for any other distribution, but MikTeX is practically mindlessly easy to install and maintain. And it seems to work.
http://www.miktex.org/ You should be able to produce ConTeXt documents out of the box when installed properly.
Hope this helps,

I would definitely not recommend MikTeX. Sooner or later, if your projects are growing, you run into the error: ! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [hash size=35000]. and MikTeX does not provide a way to increase hash size.
