That's EXACTLY what happens on my machine - I wrote about it earlier
(Ghost in the Machine post)

The drives power down but the MB stays up - When I depress the power
switch and hold it in for several seconds - the machine finally shuts
off.  But the strangest thing is, after several mintues of being powered
OFF - the machine springs back to life (by ITSELF!) - I didn't tough
ANYTHING!

Gateway PII/400 (Intel PBOX BIOS) 

Very odd.
