Linux on a new computer
I know that I could probably install it myself. But when I order my new computer I would rather have it come pre-installed. Can anyone recommend a company that makes PCs pre-installed for the home with any distribution of Linux.

Check there. Why DON'T you want to do it yourself? It's a great learning experience.
