rehovot linux

[Steve G.]

As far as I know, you can get a small selection of servers from Dell and IBM
with Linux preinstalled, and there are specialty Linux providers that offer
only preconfigured Linux servers. Also some netbooks (Aspire, EEEPC sell -
or at least sold - them with Linux. I suspect you will have to order them
abroad and get them shipped or brought by a person to Israel, but I am not
sure as I reside elsewhere.

Usually, if you want a Vendor to support Linux, you will be paying the same
price (or more) of having windows on the machine, so I am not sure I would
go that route. Might as well buy a Linux compatible computer (check online
for Linux compatibility), with Windows 7, and install Linux on it. You will
have the best of both worlds, and probably can find a wide selection of
hardware, maybe even at markdown.
