Are you asking for a suitable brand, or the place where you can find it?? If it's the brand, I will recommend a Toshiba / Lenovo / Acer. I think Acer s come with some Linux distribution preloaded. If you are looking for where to purchase it, it can be ANYWHERE. Just look out for any good dealers in your town or nearby towns. I will recommend using Ubuntu Linux, you can just download it from the net or order for free CDs.

Only thing you need to make sure is Wifi, Linux supports a huge range, but you need to be sure it supports the wifi chipset on your lappy.
