[kwlug-disc] Mini-ITX Hardware and Linux

[unsolicited]

Seems to me I remember Canada Computer moving towards stocking such.

As a reality check, it's usually worthwhile to pop over to Tiger 
Direct. They tend to have a larger variety of inventory. Useful when 
trying to see "what's out there", and "ballpark pricing"

You might pop over to http://www.pricecanada.com/ and see if you get 
any hits.
