I am just saying that both IBM and HP (and SGI...) support linux, in
various degrees. Enough to invest large amount of money. However, I
doubt HP supports anything on IBM machines :)
OTOH, HP supports linux on some of their own machines. I had the
opportunity to see some of them 2 months ago at a conference HP
organized over here.

Bottom line, when in need of paid support, one must talk to the vendor
of the hardware, and [ eventually ] to the large Linux players (as is
Suse, RH, Novell)
