You might like to have a look at www.thinkpenguin.com.  They are heavily 
Linux oriented
(and as such deserve to be supported IMHO).  I haven't bought a computer 
from them (yet)
but I bought a USB WiFi device from them --- which solved an infuriating 
problem that I
was having in getting WiFi to work on my new-ish Toshiba Satellite 
L850.  Service was
prompt, friendly and helpful, and their communications were lucid and 
basically bullshit-free.

     cheers,

P. S.  Based on my experience, ***don't*** buy a Toshiba!
