Well, the Optiplex 755 series is also available as the 755n, a 
no-Windows-installed version, so I'm guessing it should work.  Haven't tried 
that specific model yet (our customers don't need that "remote management" 
stuff) but I've not had problems with other recent Optiplex systems and RHEL.

I'm curious what you're having problems with?  They use a newer Intel chipset, 
which should be recognized out of the box by RHEL 5.  Is this a pre-purchase 
question, or are you having problems with an already-purchased system?
