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
