Places that sell COMPUTERS
Shops where you can get a computer. We like it best if they supply and support Linux.

When you're looking into the possibility of getting a computer it's nice if the places hoping to provide you with such a machine are helpful and knowledgeable. There's some wise advice about this, the idea of proper computer shops. One good magic word to know is "Linux". If you ask the people "Does this computer support Linux?", then, even if you aren't sure what Linux is yourself, the response you get from asking of the question may help you to determine whether the people at the shop have any idea what they are talking about. If you find a place is boycotting Linux, whether because of signing a protectionist cartel contract, or through bad management, my advice is: AVOID. Go to somewhere that's more open source friendly.

This category is about places which sell computers, and we have tried to list them to help towards the promotion of real computing, rather than box shifting, "who cares after you've taken it out of the shop?!" types of ways of carrying on business. Some people have had some quite telling experiences of "computer shops", so be aware and make wise choices. Good luck!
