We have 2 PowerEdge 1300's with a single processor installed. They
weren't pre-loaded, but stock RH installation was flawless. Prior
versions of RedHat did have a problem recognizing the on-board video,
but that was easily solved by selecting the generic SVGA driver. That
problem has gone away AFAIK.
If you are going to have a raid drive configuration (we didn't), it
might be worth buying the box with Linux pre-installed, but otherwise, I
wouldn't pay a premium for the preinstallation.
