Last month I purchased my Toshisba Tecra A2 notebook from Daniel at 
Centurian Computers, I did the install of Fedora myself but Daniel 
offered support as needed. I went to a number of the mainstream notebook 
suppliers, none of which would pre-install Linux or offer any support.

I recommend going through Daniel, I will email you his mobile number so 
you can try calling him.

Regards, Rob.
