Red Hat are still AFAIK consciously aimed at the server, although their recent desktop work suggests that isn't going to persist. Lindows et al are clearly aimed... IBM and HP took part in last week's OSHCA conference ( www.oshca.org ) (I don't know if I could cope with more than a week of monotonously blue and sunny warm weather in November) and were interesting, but both currently have a clear policy of Windows use on company laptops. However, that too may change.
