In the market for a new Desktop.

[Linux for blind general discussion]

Hi.


I custom build computers for people. I'd be willing to build for the op, 
but I don't think I'd be any better than the op at knowing how well 
Linux would work on it.


I actually don't see how one could guarantee it would work well for 
something like an hp either though.
