Ubuntu + IBM = Choice corporate Linux desktop?

I can set up a Linux desktop from bare metal to working customized desktop in about an hour. I can set up several dozens Linux desktops for an SMB (small to medium sized business) in a day. I can’t, however, roll out several hundred or thousands Linux desktops without a lot of help, time and work. Now, thanks to a partnership between Canonical, the company behind Ubuntu, and IBM, there’s a way to roll out corporate Linux desktops almost as fast as you can plug them into the network.
