That's twice today that the suggestion of forcing the user to reboot whether they like it or not has been made. What a long way we've come since the early days :) Personally, I think a dialog box is pretty simple for most users (no forcing, just persuasion), and allows those who know what they're doing to ignore it. And obviously reducing the number of times you ask to just absolute necessity is a win-win. But please, no more forced reboot suggestions. This isn't MSFT.
