I suppose it´s a good thing, but I´m not 100% at ease with all those multinationals trrying to give Linux a swing . . . . . hope this all will end well.B) Bruno

It's significant that an executive from IBM's Global Services group is the one making the case for desktop Linux, not someone from a product group, said Illuminata analyst Gordon Haff. It could indicate that IBM now sees Linux on the desktop as something it will help offer when customers ask for it, rather than something IBM aggressively pushes.
I think that is the most significant quote from the review. Linux being used as a base for specific applications. It was the way SCO started.
