Although I wouldn't personally recommend Ubuntu (I'd leave that to Dave 
Morley) I can probably help you out of your windows hell. If your Dell 
is from the last 5-6 years, it will probably boot ok off a usb memory 
stick, which I can lend you. Other than that, I might have a writable 
CD/DVD lying round somewhere... but if we rely on the post it's gonna 
take a few days.

I'm not in Wolverhampton, I'm in Newport (near Telford), but it depends 
where you are...
