No hardware problems here and it is more stable than any G4 I had.

Add more RAM - the G5 s are stared of RAM in the original 
configuration.  Unlike the G4 line, RAM costs money again.  Take a look 
on ebay for Apple OEM RAM that someone with more money than me is 
trading out for the 1gig sticks - You will find 256 or maybe 512 sticks 
at a good price.  Dealram.com may have some hits for brand new 3rd 
party.
