It's rather clear how GNU/Linux is a more superior computing platform, the surprise to me is always not how some big company or organization is moving to it, but how so many seem to be so afraid of offending microsoft (by ditching it once and for all).
It's probably unrealistic to expect from such a big and important company such as IBM to come out one day with a statement "Hey everyone, as of yesterday, no more ms stuff, world-wide", but rather something hapenning gradually like this. If this is it.
