I'm currently studying the LPI. It is supposedly much more distro-neutral. I must confess I haven't taken any of the RHCE courses, but I would expect them to be RH-centric by nature. That is not to say that's a bad thing. It just is what it is. You're not likely to cover, say the Debian packaging system, but rather RPM. LPI would be more likely to cover both. So you kind of have to pick your route. From what I've read, the LPI seems more universally accepted. But you can expect the RHCE to carry a lot of weight as in the US RedHat is the predominate distro.
