   I am in the process of gearing up toward buying a new computer, and I    
   would like to get something with some flavor of Linux pre-installed, on    
   which I can then add eCS 2. Knowledgeable Linux persons have suggested the    
   following two vendors:    
      
   http://www.system76.com    
   http://zareason.com   
      
   Are their systems compatible with eCS? (Mostly low/lowish-end desktops,    
   but I could consider a laptop if it wasn't too expensive.) What should I    
   look for or avoid in terms of things like video/sound, CD/DVD (at least CD    
   burner and DVD player), etc? My ancient Dell is slowly losing its wits, so    
   I do not intend to recycle any of its hardware.   
      
   Thanks,
