My laptop is failing. So, can anybody recommend suppliers for a desktop<br>
(modest configuration and therefore cheap) without paying the Windoze<br>
tax.<br>
<br>
I want to stick with Ubuntu or similar preferably with Gnome2 but<br>
definitely without Gnome3 or Unity. What are the pros &cons between<br>
Linux Mint 12 and Ubuntu (e.g. Lucid and reverting to Gnome2 when<br>
Precise is released)?<br>
