IBM and Intel are among the players that have announced their support for the company. The rescue package comes after quite a turbulent time at SuSE HQ, but the company seems optimistic about the future."

    With IBM haviong said that they would put One Billion dollars usian into Linux, what's a measely 45 million dollar in the mix?

    I figure they probably what to keep as much diversity as possible going. So IBM makes sense in a way.

    But what about Intel? I'm not up to speed on their involvement.
