However, the customer is responsible for their own certification from the individual operating system vendors. In many cases, the customer may leverage their operating system certifications from Intel's testing. See the "Comments" section next to each operating system in the following table for additional information. Intel's certifications, pre-certification, and operating system testing may help reduce some of the risk in achieving customer certifications with the operating system vendors.
