I think we've narrowed the suspects down to the UPS to which the system is connected.

I hit the test button, and everything turned off.

So, if we were suffering power fluctuations on the 2nd and 3rd, and the UPS circuitry decided that it needed to correct these fluctuations, it would have tried to do so by placing load on the battery. The battery, however, is deader than death itself, so this would result in an effective hard power-off of the system.

New batteries are on their way as we speak.

There are numerous things that can make a system reboot but the most common one I have come across is power supply problems. Despite the fact that you have a new system, all it takes is one little burp from the power supply to cause the reboot. Even if you have a brand name power supply, it is suspect.
