I bought a new xps from dell in Feb/Mar with vista and it has been working great. I imagine if you have an old machine or printer and want to load vista there may be some issues but otherwise it has been working flawlesslly for me. I like it...a lot better then xp IMO... on several fronts.
My only complaint is it is a memory hog. I have 4 gb and it takes away 1 gb just for the OS and only shows 3gb avaiable. When you load Photoshop and IndesignCS3 with all my calendar photos...it takes all the memory..It still seems to run fine without pausing (which is much better then the machine I used last year which ened up swapping at times)
Anyway I am pretty postivie on the product, esp with new hardware.

IMO if you get a new machine and it does not work, pack it up and send it back.
