Sounds like a lot of fun to me but I'm a Compaq/HP guy, I've worked with 
the IBM stuff but I'm not fond of it.

In fact I quit IBM about a month ago because of the working conditions. 
If you want to know why go out to http://www.allianceibm.org I just 
can't work for a company that does the sort of things talked about on 
this website and tells the world they are great and that they support 
the Linux community. IBM is about profit and thats all.

BTW don't reimburse for any beer, that could put the person who bought 
the beer in a very bad position. Pizza, soda, and friendship is the way 
to go.

Sam.
