You know the reset button on the machine resets the entire machine, right?
No matter how fast or sloppy my typing, nor what editor I use, I'm very
unlikely to accidentally reach under the desk and hit the (recessed)
reset button while sitting at the keyboard, working.
On many machines now, the power switch invokes a shutdown dialog,
instead of simply powering the machine off with no warning--see the
GNOME power-management applet's dialog. On my wife's Dell Dimension, I
haven't even been able to locate a reset button--the only thing on the
front panel available to press is the power button. No reset button on
any of my laptops, either.
On all machines I know of, pressing the power button for 4 seconds
performs a hard reset.
Yes, also not likely to be done by accident.
except by those emacs users who have admitted randomly pressing buttons
to see what they do, you know that's how to learns computers nowadays ;-)
