# I've to get a bunch of PC's and put Linux on em.
#    Been looking at Dell and Gateway.
#    Price is an issue, gateway seem to have what I want
# (GP7-500 or so).
#
#
#   One nagging issue - they wont support the hardware if
# there's a thrid
# party
#    OS (ie. linux) on them.
#     Anyone have a list of PC vendors in dublin.  I seem to remember a
# page,
#    possibly on iol somewhere, but cant find it.

I've been dying to say this.
Beyond 2000 (on Chatham Row (near the Clarendon) and in Clerys on O'Connell St.)
are looking into selling PCs with linux preinstalled.
I've been told [by somebody in Beyond 2000] that it wouldn't be a bad thing
if people on the list were to pop in some time to ask about it - they simply
want to gauge the demand for preinstalled linux.
