ibm has been very vocal on its support for linux. they have a lot of models in the x-series from single servers to clusterable multi-processor monsters. all of which are certified to support linux. they even support linux on their s/390. i haven't tried j2ee apps, but redhat seems to have a good "partnership" with ibm, so i guess that's the distro to try. hth, -eric -- �.--. �Enrique D.
