FreeBSD 4.x, 5.x, and 6.x have been stable for me on all Dell hardware.

4.x (currently 4.11) has been running on 1550's, 1650's, 2650 and  
1750's for > 3 years
5.4 on 2450  for ~6 months
6.0 on 1750, 1850, and 2650 since 6.0-RC2, currently running 6.0-REL.

Never a flake-out not due to a hardware failure, and that only on two  
of the 1550s over 4 years' time.  I did have the 5.4 box running 5.4- 
REL-p7 lockup once, but was unable to determine the cause.
