Hmm. But we're seeing some machines that end up very confused if 
rebooted via ACPI. I guess we need to run Vista on them to find out how 
they behave. What OSI strings did your KVM setup expose? We know that 
Windows changes behaviour under various circumstances depending on which 
OS the firmware requests, so it's almost possible that this is another 
of those cases.
