I had called them looking for a system run Ubuntu on. I approached
them with "this is what I need the computer to do" and they did not
have the knowledge to sell me a system which does what I need it to
do. That is fine, but I still need a computer! Therefore I turn to the
Linux-Il mailing list in the hopes that someone may have bought a
computer in the past few months and could recommend a vendor. Surely
there exist on the market at least on motherboard on which Ubuntu will
run out of the box.
