Hello,
I want to buy a new laptop, and i want to have linux installed on it. thats because I want the price to be as low as possible. So, where can I get such laptops? It will be ok if I get one without any Operating system in it, because I know that there are many ways of downloading linux from net.

it will be harder to find. Most manufacturers are under contract to provide an OS on every system that they sell. I think for home users only Dell offers Linux (I may be wrong), but for more expensive business systems most manufacturers sell with Linux.

Dell sells desktops and laptops with ubuntu pre-installed on it, as does System76. Wal-mart sells a desktop for $199 that has a customized version of ubuntu on it. There is also the Asus EEEE PC, that has a custom version of Xandros, but that's more like a PalmPC more than anything.
