I recommend that you bookmark this link:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/

From there you'll be able to find just about any answer to basic (and
detailed) questions.

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GettingUbuntu
[the most recent LTS (Long Term Support) version of Ubuntu is 8.04 but
the instructions are the same]
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation

If you are running Windows and would like to install Ubuntu just the
same as you would a Windows program, you can try Wubi instead to do the
install:
