Joy.
Update: Memtest-86 is on the third pass without finding any errors.
Not the memory, then.
Not the disk drive, since I swapped that yesterday and it died within ten minutes.
It happens whether I'm on battery or mains power.
Grr.
Dell is having a sale right now...

Could be worse. You could be Scott Adams:
When I worked at Pacific Bell, all of my computers crashed and fried on a regular basis. One time my assignment was to build an electronic bulletin board – essentially a souped up PC with special circuit boards. I ordered all of the components, including the several special boards. But I couldn’t get it to work. It took about two months to determine, through trial and error, that every single component I ordered was defective. Everything from the mother board to the specialty boards, to the monitor, to the keyboard. What were the odds of that? For me, it was routine.

Sheesh... I'd go out and buy a lottery ticket after that.

When every single component you order for a computer is defective, and
defective parts are a routine experience, it's not time to change
distributors, it's time to review your safeguards against static
electricity.
