[ale] Place to buy desktop in Atlanta

[Scott Plante]

I half suspect you've already purchased by now, but just in case I figured I'd share. 
We always get ours at GIM Computers on Northside and Deering--might be handier if you're in the Buckhead/Midtown area. They're happy to sell you a great system without the Microsoft tax. Dell we've always noticed seems to charge just as much whether you get Windows or not. 

Apparently you don't pay the fancy web design tax either :-P http://gimcomputers.com/

I ran into some nasty problems with my desktop today. I'm using a small BayTrail for now, but I need a replacement. Fry's sells name brands. As does BestBuy. MicroCenter hos PowerSpec, but I don't need Winders on this computer. 


Looking for a quad-core AMD 64 
10,000 RPM SATA3 
16G RAM 
USB 3.0 
PCI-E so I can use a multi-port serial board 
Ubuntu 15.10 64-bit. 


Not too happy with NVIDIA at the moment. Want someone more Linux friendly.
