wubi: Best Thing Since LiveCD

,----[ Quote ]
| Wubi (Windows-based Ubuntu Installer) is amazing. It’s one of those tools 
| that should make 100s if not 1000s of people to try out Linux right away. But 
| I am not sure if this tool is making as much noise as it should. If last time 
| you tried to install Linux was 5 years ago and the thought of installing 
| Linux on a separate partition along side your existing windows installation 
| gives you nightmares, this tool is for you.

[Installing Linux from Windows] Wubi Review

| In conclusion, this tool is certainly one of the easiest ways of letting 
| people try Ubuntu without removing Windows or having to partition their hard 
| drive for a dual-boot.  I have enjoyed this tool, and although it is still in 
| beta, it works very well and is very stable.  So, if you are running a 
| computer with Windows and want to give Ubuntu a try, then this is the 
| solution for you.
