Some older 3/50's (dimple-tops) were wont to behave the same way.  One of
our customers once has a system which tended to reboot spontainiously
(sp?) at 10, 12, 1 and 3. The server usually stayed up, but one or the
other client went west.

Once they got the glitches from the elevators (!) out of the power lines,
the systems died much less often.
