On one side, I think this adds legitimacy to Linux operating in business here in the USA, which hasn't seemed to publicly be Linux friendly up to this point. On the other hand, all they mention is the RedHat cloud services. I'd like to see more Linux in businesses from the desktop to the servers to the cloud.
Most of IBM’s customers are big enterprises, and a very high percentage of them run Linux. Most prefer RHEL, since that comes with support. One of the tasks my team is working on is making sure that RH products run as well on IBM Power systems as they do on x86 systems, so that IBM can sell more hardware.
