Fedora and Redhat have no agreements with MS and redhat spoke openly against any such agreements and declared they wouldn't sign such a deal if they were ever offered one by MS (which they weren't) same goes for ubuntu (canonical).
though there is no evidence that some of the money you pay for an asus eeepc ends up in microsoft's hands, i consider it likely. just an opinion.
