If you meant Ubuntu you are wrong. It runs from the CD without
installing.

You're both right. The Ubuntu "Live CD" runs off the CD without
touching the system. The standard distribution installs as normal, on
the hard drive. Same functionality, but the liveCD is great for testing
systems to make sure they'll work with the real install.
