RedHat used to have (and probably still does) a very large lab staffed to certify that a piece of hardware would run with RedHat's distribution... which earned the 'Certified to Run with RedHat' seal of approval. I think the vendor paid for this cert. I haven't seen this lately in magazine ads, as I did in 2000, so I do not know if this is a ongoing effort with them. But, RedHat and Dell were thick as fleas back then. I have no clue towards their relationship now, but RedHat and Suse are their major offerings still, for their server lines. 25% isn't bad, it used to be a LOT less!
