With that said, many Tier-2 and whitebox OEMs cater to multiple OSes. Several system integrators lurk on the Red Hat AMD64 list: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/amd64-list I also mentioned decade-old ASL recently as shipping CentOS as an additional option to Fedora Core and RHEL: http://www.aslab.com > I'm only interested in i386 architecture, by the way. Since Dell doesn't ship AMD on its servers, it makes little difference. Although I wouldn't put more than 1-2GiB RAM in the servers. If you need more than 2GiB, I'd be looking towards AMD. -- Bryan J.
