At this time, I really don't have specifics.  It will be more server
oriented with no support needed from a vendor.  I am just looking for a
few local names to at least do some research.  I am not familiar with the
IT hardware retail industry at all.  I have been in sporting goods retail
for about 17 years and know all the costs, margins and other numbers that
go with that type of market.  Looking to possibly do the same with Open
Source friendly hardware.

You are correct.  No M$ software at all.

Thanks,
