- Well, DesqView redefined CTRL-ALT-DEL quite a while ago. I found it
- EXTREMELY useful. It is redefined in such a way that you can still argue
- that its function has not changed - it reboots the machine. In the DV case
- (and WinEnh I presume) it reboots the _virtual_ machine, thus killing the
- app. DV allows CTRL-SHIFT-METABUCKEY-DEL (can't remember offhand) to reboot
- the physical machine.
