I ordered from AT&T and told them that I would do the install myself. The guy didn't have a problem with that and just dropped the box off. He said I was the first person to have the box (packaging) openned before they left. What I would recommend: Request a self install. Then, if you have the time, ask the installer if they would like to learn how to do a Linux install. Most of them probably won't be interestd, but it shouldn't hurt to offer. Nate
