Not the end of the world, and neither is it a priority to retrieve its files... Its nothing I really need on it - Just stuff from years ago that would have been interesting to look back on...
But as for right now, I wont be installing ubuntu on THIS laptop anytime soon  |
Used laptops are dirt cheap, you can grab one locally off a classified site to play around with.
