Will 4000 MB be enough for all the download work needed to install Ubuntu?

Question

I am a Windows user and I am looking forward to using Ubuntu 12.04, however there are some difficulties I want to discuss. First off I am using a Pentium 4 PC RAM 4 GB and 160 GB hard disk, processor 3.00 GHz. Will Ubuntu run seamlessly and faster than Windows 7 that I have? Secondly, I access the Internet using HUAWEI Tata Photon+ device. Will that work on Ubuntu? Most importantly, I have a balance of 4000 MB left, will that be enough for all the download work needed(say by the exe installer).

Thanks a lot fellas.

Size of iso is near ~750 MB . And you may need extra band width for installing additional tools . Your system specs are enough to run ubuntu smoothly .

Yep. 4GB of data is more than enough. I installed it using 1.5GB of data transferred, and had no trouble at all.

4000 MB should be WAY more than enough to download Ubuntu... if you're planning on downloading extra software after you download Ubuntu, it really depends upon what the software is.
