The FTP command in a DOS prompt window (type 'cmd' or 'command' from
Start->Run) is adequate. Or get a download manager for Windows like
GetRight.

Download to your Windows machine. An image of a floppy disk won't fit
on a (already formatted) floppy disk.

Download the ISO's to your Windows machine, as well. www.nero.com has a
free trial version of their burning software which will do the right
thing, if you're not sure of how to burn the CD correctly.
