Linux Dedicated Servers: Linux Dedicated Servers are all Genuine Dell Servers preloaded with your choice of CentOS or Redhat operating systems and a complete set of software tools and applications to speed your dedicated server deployment.

CentOS Dedicated Servers: CentOS is an Enterprise-class Linux Distribution derived from sources freely provided to the public by Red Hat, one of the leading Linux vendors. CentOS conforms fully with Red Hat’s redistribution policy and aims to be 100% binary compatible. (CentOS mainly changes packages to remove Red Hat’s branding and artwork.) CentOS is free of charge and is not affiliated with, sponsored or supported by Red Hat, Inc.
