ubuntu-us-nj Introduction

Computer dealers. For example, there's a small one in Highland park, and
another one or two off of route one. The pitch would simply be to show
them ubuntu in all of it's glory, and work with the dealer to the point
where they feel comfortable offering the consumer a choice and a price
discount. Most of these guys are not chains, and either offer custom
built, or recycled machines. Avoiding the license fee, or giving them
the ability to make the machine look more appealing (in the case of a
recycled machine) might be something they would be interested in.
