Intel: made their processor have support for Linux because many servers run it. Their Intel Xeon processor is known to run best on Linux.
AMD: Has worked with Linux development to make their processors compatible with Linux and vice versa. They want to compete with Intel in stable 64-bit Linux servers.
Compaq: Is now HP. HP has equipped their latest desktop PC's with Mandrake Linux.
IBM: Is known for advertising their Linux servers, which is their main focus.
Gateway: I agree, they're Microsoft's bitch. They copy design from Apple, and do it poorly too.
Dell: Install's FreeDOS instead of Windows at default, because they want to keep the price low.
nVidia: Has very good Linux and FreeBSD drivers for GeForce and nForce.
Ati: Their drivers for Linux are shit, but so are their Windows drivers.
Sony: Turned againts Microsoft when they released the Xbox.
Yahoo!: Is using FreeBSD to drive their websites.
Google: See
this. Google has also stated that they are much better than MSN Search.
More countries and city's in Europe are starting to install Linux. Computer-makers in Asia are putting Linux on their PC's, because Microsoft's foreign ones are crappy and undertranslated.
