My personal advocacy is that, if one uses a distro like Ubuntu, there's a corresponding commitment to spread the good word. I, for one, have been into Ubuntu for four months. Convinced at its simplicity (except the default brown color) and functionality, I have recommended it to my Windows-spoiled friends. I was even able to install it to the computers of several of them.So far, feedback is positive.
In fact, there's already a Philippine website for Ubuntu: http://www.ubuntu-ph.org. You may want to sign on. Our team leader is Jerome Gotangco.
Re the installer, I'm sure other comrades will respond to volunteer their copies.

I am yet to install Ubuntu as a main desktop. I still have sid as main OS due to its friendlier environment for development. But i have to acknowledge Ubuntu is a great distro for desktops.
