Alexander,
It sounds like you just came up with a business model which you  
believe could work.
All you would need to do is find a dependable source (or sources) of  
decent priced hardware that runs freebsd.
You charge a little more than the store, and have them drop-ship to  
the customer.  Real profit will not be made if the business does not  
do much business, but no energy will go into it either.
You have pointed out a gap in the industry, why not take advantage of  
it?
