Thanks for the tips so far!

nu2this :
simply hold the sleep/wake button on the top for a few seconds to bring up a red slider at the top of the display which allows you to power off the phone.
just in case your didn't know!

I will add that to my page!

shutdown -r now or CTRL-ALT-DEL if it's trapped in your inittab.

This assumes you have no other users logged in at the time, of course.

*NIX users know that restarting your computer doesn't fix problems, it just masks them until the next failure.

Great concept. However, if you want anybody to take you seriously, hire a proofreader.

I suppose I could.
Though I'd also consider re-wording it in a way that's not so obviously insulting. It's more fun when your target audience doesn't realize they've been insulted for thirty minutes or more.

Everyone wants to go to the Moon. The idiots want to eat the cheese, but the rest of us just want to snort the Moon Dust.

If you want people coming back, you need ever-changing content. Ideas off the top of my head are:

Reader-submitted stories of tech support from Hell.
Some support-related comic illustrating the crap Techs put up with.
A game... Pin the TNT on the Dell?

I never said every idea was a good one...

Looks like he's creating a LART, in which case, be as insulting as you want, a la BOFH.

Ah, but the BOFH is not without his subtlety. Many victims fail to realize they've been victimized until it's too late. Y'know, locked in the sub-basement... and by the time they discover you're not going to let them out, you're already at the pub across the street with a pint in hand.
