Sorry if I'm missing a point here, but if you have another machine
connected to the internet you should be able to download. Will only take
30mins on a moderate broadband connection. You can then either load it on
to a USB (with a software tool, as moving the ISO on to the drive will flat
out not work) or burning it to a CD/DVD (again with a tool which supports
burning ISO images, there are plenty of free ones which do a good job.)

Regards,
Kris
