My notebook

I got a notebook as a birthday present.
It is a Toshiba with 128Mb ram(OK if you only run one app at a time), 18G hard drive, CD/DVD, and floppy. Running XP Pro.

BUT:
I can't install Ubuntu on it AND i can't connect it to the Internet! (well i can at JD's house but not at mine)

So the two most important things i can't do!

GGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRR I HATE PC'S GGGGGGGRRRRRRRRR

well they aren't so bad so long as they aren't MY notebook!
