If I understand what your asking/saying the laptops/desktops do ship from the  
United States so they will be taxed on delivery. There is no markup on them.  
In fact there are costs right now we're not taking into consideration. The  
cables, keyboards, etc can add $80-90 USD to the cost. It's not taken into  
consideration right now. That might change as we might be losing money on  
them unless your purchasing other items / upgrades alongside.

The main concern I have is ensuring hardware is readily available and  
properly supported under free software operating systems. I also try and  
price stuff is its affordable to people on a budget, but there are limits.  
For a basic configuration of any of the laptops/desktops there isn't much of  
a markup. That's intentional so those who don't have a ton of cash will  
hopefully be able to afford something still. I don't want to see people  
purchasing hardware that's hostile to who contaminated with DRM, proprietary  
software licenses, or not properly supported, etc
