Umm, if you find one, tell me. I am almost 99% sure that no vendors
specialize in Linux. The best you may get is a technician that has ran
Linux.

I can give you one...ME. I've been working on getting a business going that
deals in Linux. I've got some good deals on hardware and I'll configure
the system for you if you would like. Let me know. Unfortuantely I'm
going up to Alaska for about 2 weeks...I'll be back at the end of the month.

Well I would do if I had the time besides my studies, at least for germany.
If some ppl are interested, please let me know.
Well, we do have the time, and we can build a system for Linux. If
anyone's interested drop me a line at
pdcawley@ftech.co.uk
and we'll see what we can do. That's UK/Europe only BTW.
