IBM Announces "Non-Windows" Sytems

IBM in cooperation with Red Hat (Fedora Project), Novell (SuSE) and Ubunutu have announced a new campaign to advertise "Microsoft-free personal computing choices."While this is not a first attempt at a Windows Free environment it is the first time I can remember such a large consortium coming together and being anchored by a large corporation like IBM surely should have some effect.

As a Microsoft trained professional I can see numerous reason why this is happening, but number 1 on that hit parade is Vista, which leaves much to be desired! While I use it at work and have little issues, I do know running two pigs like Vista and Adobe CS3 sure kicks me in the shins when I have them both going full bore!

One question though, what will IBM do with it's Linux project called Yellow Dog? hmmm
