If you are interested in testing out Ubuntu but don’t want to deal with an ISO please be sure to check out Wubi. Wubi allows you to install Ubuntu on your Windows machine as if it were just another application. At the end of the day, if you don’t like it, just uninstall it as you would an other app.
I have yet to try Wubi so please leave comments below if you have had a chance to run it. If you are interested in going stright for Ubuntu’s latest offereing, Hardy Heron, just click the image above.
