<font size="-1">I can add that when searching for Linux powered laptops
here I found that several stores (not the big elec. chains stores IIRC)
sell linux powered Acer laptops. These laptops, and I suspect that the
desktop as well, have Linpus on them. They also, probably, contain some
binary drivers from Acer, which isn't open source nor can I be sure
they're install-able on other linux distros easily.<br>
<br>
Eventually, since I want to have as hassle-free Linux OS as I can (I
don't miss my Gentoo days... :-), I installed Ubuntu on an Acer laptop
(thankfully, almost all HW is supported on it, to a workable degree)
and they (we) all live(d) happily ever after.<br>

<pre wrap="">I usually don't think much of the big electronic networks when it comes
to buying a computer but yesterday why flipping through the week-end
papers I pleasantly surprised that Shekem Electric is selling
Acer desktops with Linux installed.

Does anyone here have experience with them?
