I bought my most recent PC from Cougar Extreme.  They have a guy called 
Patrick who knows Linux well, and the entire firm is very helpful.  They 
sell laptops as well and are willing to say which hardware will work OK 
with Linux.  I bought my PC with no OS, but they would have installed 
Ubuntu on request.  From my point of view, Cougar is handy - about half 
an hour's drive away - but they will arrange delivery.
