[ubuntu-us-mi] new laptop

[Clay Ashby]

Julia,

If you are looking for a low price laptop, and system76 does not sell
anything you want, then you can send me an email at clay at gnomecc.com and I
can help you out. I own a computer business in Zeeland, and I can get you a
used or refirbished system for a decent price with any flavor of Ubuntu
installed that you wish to have.

Let me know; we love to do business with Linux users!
