Now, Ubuntu CD's (AFAIK) come with a combination of
LIVE and installable in one CD. (guess, from 6.06
onwards)

For you curriculum, I guess, you'll still have to
stick to Windows, but you can always do that in
College. At home you can use Free and Open Source
Software (Apart from the fact that you can use
"alternatives").

I'm in Mumbai and can help you obtain the CD's after
10th of April 2007. Let me know whether you want 6.06
/ 6.10. 
My email id, just in case, you aren't able to find out
