Installing RHEL over Windows 7 or 8

Hi,

Sorry if this is an incorrect place for this question but I haven't been able to find any answers by searching the forums or on google. I am in the market for a new HP Z420 workstation and HP wants a lot more money for one with the HP Linux Installer kit vs. the exact same configuration in Windows 7 or 8 64 bit. Is there some hidden architectural difference between the workstations preventing me from just installing RHEL from my own discs over the Windows operating system?

Thanks.

Russ
