ROK:

The Reseller Option Kit (ROK) program authorizes qualifying IBM Distributors to buy selected IBM OEM licenses of select Microsoft Windows Server operating systems for installation on IBM System x and BladeCenter Servers or for sale to IBM Business Partners (Resellers) for installation on IBM System x and BladeCenter Servers. Distributors can also install the ROK themselves if requested by the Reseller or if they want to act as a Reseller in order to sell IBM System x and Bladecenter Servers installed with the ROK directly to customers. (If a Distributor wants to act as a Reseller they must agree and adhere to all the applicable Reseller ROK licensing terms.) This program delivers one-stop shopping and flexibility to IBM's distributors, allowing them to buy their Microsoft Windows Server operating systems and IBM System x and BladeCenter servers from one source.
