 Quite a scene last night.  I happened to look over at my G4 iMac
 (round base - 1ghz) and the screen was rapidly flashing.  You would
 see the desktop background  then black.  At first I thought the
 display was about to go out.  I moved the mouse and the screen went
 back to desktop as normal.
 Is this a sign?

I love the old Flying Toasters, but had problems (hung system, weird
displays, etc.) with it and gave it up. Unless you have found a
modern version, stated to be compatible with OS 10.5, I would be
suspicious of it. If you have found such a modern version, let us know
where to get it!
