just a heads up. if you have trouble running graphical installer try the mini iso. You can install a command line only system and then sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-desktop or xubuntu-desktop. Or you could even install xfce, kde,etc without the ubuntu additions.
Whoever came up with the phrase "There is no such thing as a stupid question" obviously never had the internet.
