Gateway +  SuSE?

Is someone actually nuts enough to buy a server from Gateway?

"SuSE has long sought a greater presence in the United States, where
rival Red Hat has taken the lead in selling Linux server software to
businesses.
The alliance with Gateway and the acquisition by Novell will help SuSE
expand in the U.S. server software market, said Holger Dyroff, SuSE's
North America general manager."

So IBM is chump change?  Seems to me they sell a whole hecka'va lot more
servers than <cough> Gateway.
