Also, T-Zone is selling their Proton line of computers with TurboLinux
preinstalled on them as well, as an option.  I believe it's only available
on their 266MHz pentium-II, but it's a nice system.  We had one here for
testing.  I think they're selling for around 18 万円, according to the
sales people here, but it might be a little less, I'm not sure.

It has the Standard TL 2.0 preinstalled, plus a book, AFAIK.
