I have a 4 X 2.5 GHz (quad) PowerPC G5 with 8 GB Ram. For a long time I ran OS 10.4 but 
just recently completed upgrading to OS 10.5.8. Since completing this upgrade I now get 
deadpan messages saying "you need to restart your computer. hold down the power 
button." In other words the computer has seized and there is no option but to kill 
the power. When I get the computer restarted I get a nice window offering to send a crash 
report to Apple (as if they care about an older operating system).

Who is sending this really frustrating message that I must now hold down the 
power button and restart? I operated this computer for years with other 
operating systems without a freeze or a seize or a crash. I'm thinking I wasted 
my money on OS 10.5. Anyone have any ideas that might be helpful here?
