Hardware

Linux is now the hottest operating system on the planet. Why? Because it provides great functionality at a low cost. However, as with all operating systems, the key is to use the correct and supported hardware.

IBM gives us the perfect platform for any Linux installation from the very small to the very large. IBM's dedication and commitment to Linux matches our own and provides us with a fleet of products to choose from that are always 100% Linux friendly and fully supported by both Net Direct and IBM.
