The Live CD's are also a great way of trying out the various flavors of Ubuntu (e.g. Kubuntu: http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu and Xubuntu: http://www.xubuntu.org/) to see which desktop system you prefer. I have a really old laptop (from around 2001, which makes it about 60 in internet years!) that's practically unusable as its so slow running XP, keep meaning to trying out Xubuntu on it and see if it gives it a second lease of life. Good luck if you go ahead with the move. Cheers James.
