News from LinuxForum 2006-IBM's German senior officials disclosed in the LinuxForum speech for the first time that IBM will abandon using the Microsoft operating system in the future and turn to fully support Linux.

"IBM has canceled its contract with Microsoft in October this year, that is to say, IBM will not use the Windows Vista operating system on its internal desktop platform. Starting in July this year, IBM employees will use the Red Hat Linux-based IBM Workplace office system. Of course, the process of eliminating Windows will be gradual, and it is certain that IBM will never upgrade to the Vista operating system ."

If IBM really chooses Linux, Microsoft will lose a large amount of registration/authorization fees, and other companies will move closer to Linux under the leadership of IBM.
