I don't have a DVD burner, and I also am on Dial UP :(  However I do have a 
DVD player on my main computer but on my testing computer I do not have a DVD 
player.

Don't know if that helps, but I have used the Windows FOSS on the Live CD, 
installed OpenOffice and Firefox from it if I recall correctly
