I just went through a difficult situation with a customer who has an
almost new Lenovo PC with Vista.
After a few weeks he noticed his Skype connection no longer worked. The
cause was internal breakdown of Vista files. Regrettably, his system
came without a system CD. He is facing the cost of buying one because of
the provider's unethical behavior.
Then this morning I saw an article about Ubuntu here:

My question is: How practical would it be to use Ubuntu in his case to
replace the system and restore Skype etc?

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
