RedHat Hardware Compatibility List:
http://hardware.redhat.com/hcl/
I've found in the systems I handroll that so long as I double-check the HCL, I'm fine.
I tend to agree on Asus/Micron, and might I add AMD for the CPU. Intel=overpriced! I also agree that integrated sound/video, while cheap, is ... well... cheap.
We have used http://www.penguincomputing.com (not-a-paid-endorsement) for many of our server and workstation needs. Great hardware, good support, very competitive prices.
As far as Dell goes, they cancelled that several months ago due to a lack of interest. You can still get your Dell servers intalled with RH, or without an operating system at all. Installing RH on *most* Dell hardware is a breeze.

Ok, here's my 2 cents. Asus motherboard - http://usa.asus.com - Try and stay away from integrated video, network, sound.

I'm inclined to do the usual "build your own" model and select the best components(motherboard, CPU, ram, etc.) for the job. Does anyone have an suggestions about specific motherboards, processors, or other components? Are there any Redhat specific hardware sites? Also, I tried to order a prebuilt system via the usual suspects - Dell, IBM, HP, Compaq...but was surprised to find that NONE offered to install Redhat 8 on a system. Does anyone know of any system vendors that will preinstall Redhat 8? And what happened to the deal between Redhat and Dell??? Offlist replies welcome. Will summarize/publish to www site if there's interest... regards, -gordon
