My neighbour Eric Hunsberger (he runs a computer shop downstairs, below
my loft) will put me anything I want together. He has an in-house Linux
system, but is not that knowledgeable about what will run, and what will
not. On the other hand, he is willing to test and exchange. Or let you
test and exchange. He always tests hardware he installs, and is
experienced with BIOS/install errors(cabling, interrupts, etc.) The
company name is Smart Art, and the address is 154 Victoria S.,
Kitchener. He is a good solid PC hardware man.
From my address book smartart at smartart.ca
