Hi,

Two suggestions if you've not tried already:

* Try any ideas with the Companies House website registration database
  (they be backwards folk over there and the database is only online
   during business hours...morons :P)

* Try any ideas against the OpenSRS whois database.

If the name is not registered with Companies House then you have a right
to register even if it is already in existance but you are unaware of it
(although don't quote me as IANAL) and *if* it's not a taken domain name
in .com and .co.uk then you can be pretty sure that nobody significant
is trading under that name in this sector.

If I were in your shoes then I might be trying to play up words like
"liberty" and "freedom". "Freedom" might be a bad choice because it's a
little old - what about something like "Liberty PC Systems"?
