[OT] Computer dealers, possibly Linux-friendly?

[E Frank Ball III]

} I will soon need to buy a PC, and I'd like to hear your opinions
} about good stores in Sonoma/Marin County. 

Most of the small computer stores are pathetic.  Piles of old crap.
Bit's and PCs is an exception and has some nice stuff.  Otherwise I go
to Best Buy for drives, video cards, and most peripheral stuff (They
will rob you for RAM and cables).  HSC for cables and surplus.
