Dear People, I am writing to ask whether anyone has any Linux experience with something similar to the two desktop machines described at (http://www.unc.edu/cci/index/ccishop/departmental.html) See http://www.unc.edu/cci/index/ccishop/fullconfiguration.html for more detail.
I went to http://www.ibm.com, then "Products and Services", then "Personal Computing/Desktops", then "ThinkCentre M Series", then "Customize" on the "Value" item, which let me know that this "Value" item is the "M Series M50", like your "General Corporate Model". That might give you a bit more info on the hardware.
PS. What's will all these web vendors all of a sudden putting on their sites messages like "* IBM recommends Microsoft ® Windows ® XP Professional" and "**TigerDirect recommends Microsoft® Windows® XP" and "* Dell recommends Microsoft^® Windows^® XP" (all copied from their respective web sites)? It just seems too coordinated, and yet when I wrote to TigerDirect the response "assured" me they did not put that on their web site due to pressure from Microsoft. Uh huh. Okay.
