fwiw, i can confirm this as well.  in our case, the problem was that 
when the adapter reached some temperature threshold, it would shut off 
and the system would go down.  of course, all we saw was that the qube 
was spontaneously rebooting.  we did find that if we kept the adapter 
cool (i.e., placed it directly in front of our enclosure fan), then the 
system worked just fine.  anyway, we did get a new adapter and the 
problem went away.
