Well, you can download a "live CD" linux distribution, preferably Knoppix. Boot your own machine from the live CD, and you have access to a Linux machine. After you finish playing, simply reboot machine, take out CD, ...
If the Knoppix download is too big for your internet connection you can try Slax, or Daman Small Linux (50MB download), or anything that you local Linux geek^H^H^H^H nerd^H^H^H^H expert has in his/her hands at the moment. (**)
Thera ere a few links to "live linux CDs" at

By the way
Has StarEbook indicated what OS the machine uses?
Has StarEbook indicated what hardware platform (procesor) the machine uses?
Thank you
