No one for Galway listed, though most will ship directly to you I presume.

Hi all,

I'm thinking of purchasing a new PC (or making my own 
from the bits and pieces).

Can anyone recommend a good hardware vendor here in 
Dublin (or Galway - I go there fairly often) for
this.

I've gone to Gateway (stop that laughing!!) and they told
me
a) they don't sell Linux machines and 
b) if I do install it, the warranty is voided!

Also, any URLs/references about the pros and cons 
of purchasing a machine that is Linux compatible?
Winmodems to be avoided of course - what other issues
are there?
What about USB? 

Thanks for your input.


Paul Linehan.
