I have made a discovery(?) concerning OS X and the Power line, or at
least those Power machines I have.  I have a couple of Power Tower Pros,
a Powerbase and a couple of PowerCenters.  All of these have 604 CPUs
ranging from 125 to 240mhz and  run 9.1 (and now 10.1)  Incidentally, I
also have several Macs (7500, 8550 WGS, etc) and 1 Umax S900. the S900
is equipped with a Sonnet/450 G3 card.  What I have noted is, if you hit
ctl cmd pwr on the Macs, or Umax and then hit power off on the machine
while in 10.1, it powers off. No suprise there. On the Power boxes
though, it resets.  That is, the machines immediately restart. You
cannot immediately turn a Power box off this way.  I thought this only
happened on the PowerCenter (the single one I had loaded 10.1 on), but
after noticing it on a Power Tower Pro I got curious and upgraded all my
Powers to OS X then tried it.  The behavior is consistent. Anyone else
notice this quirk?
