Lenovo Preloading SUSE Linux on ThinkPad

An anonymous reader writes "For years, the holy grail of the Linux desktop has been to get a major computer vendor to commit to preloading a Linux desktop. It's finally happened! Lenovo has made a deal with Novell to preload SUSE Linux 10 on its ThinkPad T60p mobile workstation. Ironically, in June, Lenovo was in hot-water with Linux fans because an executive had said that the company would no longer support Linux on its ThinkPad line. But the company did a quick about-turn. Who knows, maybe Mr. Dell will finally get the message, too?"

Maybe you can tell me WTF this "Apple ][" symbology is. It was the second Apple model, right? Isn't it a Roman 2, i.e. II? So is this just a silly word game to show who are the true Illuminati, like "unixen", etc?
