Not intentionally, just playing an insomianac.

And Bob's correct.  While IBM has contributed a lot of $ and code to Linux,
on many different platforms, there is no IBM distribution.  The closest
would be that at one time (and may still for all I know) had an investment
in RedHat. I've been told that the decision to not have a distribution
was intentional to fit into the culture.  I ordered a pSeries earlier
this year that had RedHat preinstalled.

Their software usually supports RedHat and SuSe distributions,
and often runs on others.
