I will sometime, be looking for a Ubuntu laptop. Zareason (New Zealand) keep threatening to set up in UK, but no recent news at all. System 76 sound great but it would be nice to stay in UK, or Europe. I am aware of Novatech but I have been disappointed with the quality, of PCs, anyway. More than one failure not far outside warranty. I currently have at least one ubuntu novice friend who wants to retail buy a mid/low end Ubuntu desktop.
I bought my most recent PC from Cougar Extreme. They have a guy called Patrick who knows Linux well, and the entire firm is very helpful. They sell laptops as well and are willing to say which hardware will work OK with Linux. I bought my PC with no OS, but they would have installed Ubuntu on request. From my point of view, Cougar is handy - about half an hour's drive away - but they will arrange delivery.
