Mani,
re: Yes! IBM is back! I was really worried that IBM may be gone for good.
Well, I hope we'll see some real products and not only announcements. Just looked around the PSG homepage (http://www.pc.ibm.com/us/index.html) and more specifically the Aptiva section (http://commerce.www.ibm.com/content/home/shop_ShopIBM/en_US/aptiva.html) where usually AMD based IBM PCs were to be found earlier. However at this time all models are based on Intel processors. Doh!
Interesting thing though is that IBM doesn't offer Desktop PCs (300GL, 300PL) with PIIIs faster than 866 MHz. Fastest Intel processor is PIII 1 GHz in Aptiva S model. Looks like Dell is still getting the bigger part of Intel's 933+ MHz processors ...
