I would be happy if someone will give me some feedback about his
experience installing FreeBSD on any of Dell, HP or IBM servers.

I know that my question is quite broad: my aim is to investigate the
level of FreeBSD compatibility with each of three major brands
available in my region.

I'm running 6.2 on an IBM Server 206m. It works fine - as long as you
don't try to use the Adaptec 9405 SAS controller on the more upmarket
models (I just removed the daughterboard and dropped back to the onboard
Intel controller). xorg supports the onboard graphics, and the Broadcom
gigabit is supported by the bge driver.
