10 links down on the home page http://www.debian.org/distrib/pre-installed - by now, everybody probably install anything you want if you're buying in enough volume for them to sell to you whether its done "properly" or not is a big separate issue - proper partition scheme ( important for admining ) - proper packages - updates - non-deb upgrades ( i just saw exim.org is about 10 revs newer than sarge ) other stuff you have to tell them ( bad idea ) or you clean up after you get it - domain name, ip#, daemons on turn on - some install for free... some charge $x,xxx or more :-) watch out for those that install it "badly" and expect you to call and pay for their additional "tech support" :-) - things always dies after warranty expires c ya alvin
