I guess it was the fact that Vista even made it out of beta that sickened me. If they had
rebadged Windows XT as Windows Vista, it would have won PC Magazine's OS of the year. I
had 4 gb of memory, more than all of my previous computers combined. And "resize to
600 pixels wide" locked it up long enough for me to make coffee.
We used Vista on a few machines at the studio I worked at. While I never
learned to like it (it didn't play nice in our network), we never had
any operational problems such as what you are describing. We weren't
using Dells, but they were still OTS machines with the same canned goop
that Dells come with.
You either had a hardware problem (bad ram) or you had something wrong
in your configuration.
Vista wasn't good, but it wasn't ~that~ bad either.
