I once had a machine that would fail reliably (every X days) running
BSD/OS.  Running FreeBSD it would go for a couple of weeks.  Running
RedHat it would just run and run and run.

I wouldn't rule out hardware problems even if linux runs fine on it.

The thing I like about Dell hardware is that they have these *really*
nifty diagnostics that pinpoint the most amazing little things, down
to the individual chip in some instances.
