IBM has always made very good solid computers, I don't know about their current stuff but I setup an old 486 IBM for my brother's family and made the OS as kid proof as posible and all I can really say is that the thing was built like a brick. As far as Unix/Linux goes you might think about getting hold of the xboard interface at Tim Mann's site (see the resource center links) because there's quite a few good programs that run in Linux that interface through Xboard like Crafty, Phalanx, Fortress, Gromit, and a new program that's getting stronger but still somewhat weak is Pierre.
