Unfortunately, unlike the other Ubuntu derivatives, Xubuntu does not yet have free cds available for shipping due to lack of funding.

You need more Ram, 128 more than that you will have to work well. Because to use the live cd you must have at least 256 of ram,
your celeron is ok. Buy new memory and enjoys it!

You may want to order a CD from a CD distributor or eBay. You can generally get a CD for £3 to £6 ($6 - $12) packing included and they sell the various versions (Ubuntu, Ku, Xu, Edu, and sometimes third party projects)

In regards to the system, you will not to run standard ubuntu or xubuntu with that amount of ram. Xubuntu will run well with 256, and even better with 512. If you cannot upgrade your ram for some reason, then you might want to go to a third party project such as Fluxbuntu. Fluxbuntu CD's are also available to buy (http://www.google.com/search?q=buy+fluxbuntu)

Can you help with this problem?
