We had a very bad experience with a laptop frm "PCs for Everyone". I had bought desktops there and been fairly satisfied and wanted a Linux laptop, so we bought one from them. It came incorrectly installed (no suspend partition), had regular problems and just died within a year of buying it. Further, they were completely unable to service it in Cambridge and had to mail it away somewhere, which added substantially to the service time. Then another year later, out of warranty, it died for good.

Despite being a 13-year user of linux, I must admit, I love my PowerBook. I wrote about it a while ago:

Definitely think twice before getting a PC4E laptop though.
