Where would you go (either physically or virtually) to buy an inexpensive small laptop with Linux pre-installed (or NOTHING pre-installed)?
Dell has a computer that comes pre-configured with Linux, but if I ordered it now I wouldn't get it until the 19th (or something like that). I need this computer by the 15th.
Acer doesn't sell anything that doesn't have Windows 7 pre-installed.
It just irritates me if, to get a computer by the 15th, Microsoft has to be paid for a crappy OS that I'm just going to delete immediately.

the dells sound nice, you just need to find a vendor ... now. amazon? i seem to recall a couple online linux specialty shops. that might be a good start for a search.
