Is there any way to get Ubuntu without a burner?

Ok, I downloaded the .iso file for Ubuntu, and was very much looking forward to having this new OS, but as it so happens, the bane of my existance, a CD-RW is not in my possession, and its rather to late for a pit stop into wal-mart..... on top of that, Im broke.

Is there anyway for me to get Ubuntu now, skipping the burning process?

Distribution Vista? http://www.google.com/linux ... search for Wubi.

Yeah man, its the totally newest and hottest version of Linux....

No, I put it there so people know that OS I'm using in the instance someone recommeds me a program and can offer me more assistance.

Wubi?

Seriously....

Even notice how Linux has some really awesome names for these programs?

Windows Installer < WUBI!
