From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Depending on your country you can use a remailer. I used to use one when I lived in the middle east and couldn't order from the US. I has a bunch of addresses worldwide you can use to order and they aggregate and forward the packages.
Which service did you find to be the most reliable?
I used shop and ship but there wasn't much choice in the UAE. It belonged to Aramex at the time which was a respected UPS like in the region. It was a while back. I can't speak for what they are worth now and how they work in places where Aramex isn't as well implanted.
I've used Aramex, they're okay.
