I'll second the system 76 recommendation. The company I work (Aspen Systems) for sells bare metal all the time, but they tend to be very high end with E5 dual/quad processors (X9 motherboard with four E5-2690 (8 cores each) and 16x8gb ram would not be all that unusual for us... I built one yesterday) . So, there are places around, but System76 assembles in California, is based in Denver, and builds a solid machine run solely on penguin power... No MS Tax here.

Is there anyone who sells computers without an operating system? Sooner or later I'll buy another one and I don't want to pay for a Windows license I'll never use. Also is there anyone selling computers with linux installed? If so which distro? If all else fails, I'll just buy the parts and build one. However that might prove difficult if I wanted a laptop.
