Try "Fintronics".  For more info, finger them:

Now, if they'd only decide to support the NEC Versa P (pentium) as a hi-end
linux laptop.  Man, I've been trying to get them to install linux on this
machine for months - they're understaffed (it seems), so they don't have the
cycles.  Or, they don't think its worth their time ;-(

But, give them a call anyway.  They're in Menlo Park, I believe.
