HP (and again, I'm not saying they are better than anyone else, just that I have experience of them) XW series Workstations are all certified with RHEL, which means that Fedora will work absolutely fine. I used an xw9300 for many years, but now the dc series desktops have just as good bang-per-buck as anything less than an xw8000 series machine. HP publish a Linux Support Matrix for their Desktop and Workstation machines and if RHEL5 is listed, Fedora will work. If there's no certification, Fedora might still work - but I understand you are looking for guarantees. http://h71028.www7.hp.com/enterprise/cache/321143-0-0-0-121.html http://h71028.www7.hp.com/enterprise/cache/317386-0-0-0-121.html If you are looking for some less vendor specific recommendations, why not have a look at the Red Hat Hardware Certification site (https://hardware.redhat.com/) as pretty much anything that is certified to work with RHEL will work with Fedora versions newer than F8. -- Sam -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
