They might be the only ones that market themselves to the average user. Since you mentioned PCLinuxOS, I have to mention this deal: http://linfx.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=22&Itemid=9/ It is not a powerful computer at all, but it is only $150. I don't think there are a lot of computers with PCLinuxOS pre-installed, but I bet you could buy any computer with any Linux pre-installed and install PCLinuxOS just fine. For Ubuntu computers try System 76 (system76.com), Zareason (zareason.com), or Dell (dell.com/ubuntu). I am sure there are more, but those are the ones that have been getting a lot of hype.

But, are those Pcs the only retail computers, or are there more options? I would like to run PCLinuxOs on a more powerful computer, like with a dual core prossesor, 2 gigs of RAM, a nice GPU etc. etc. Where can I find some deals?
