As the list was already mentioned, I will just stick with the shops,
like http://www.system76.com http://zareason.com/shop/home.php
http://www.dell.com/ubuntu http://laclinux.com/en/Start
http://emperorlinux.com/ and http://www.linutop.com/index.en.html .

I have purchased a few systems from System76, and was very impressed.
But I have Ubuntu on a lot more boxes that started live with Windows on
them.

A nice website that stays fairly current is http://linuxpreloaded.com/
