Not directly related but every AS-subscription comes with one Hardware 
Compability something (can't remember the name), available from RHN. With 
this, you can certify any hardware you want, assuming it passes the tests. 
Never done it myself but a friendly chap from Redhat GPS told me this once 
upon a time.

AFAIK WS <-> ES differences are minimal, just a few more packages added 
(vsftpd for example).
