"1. Restart the computer. If necessary, use the reset/interrupt button.
2. Immediately after the system startup tone, press and hold the
Command-Option-O-F key combination. The computer starts up to a text-only
screen, indicating that you are in Open Firmware.
3. At the prompt, type: eject cd
4. Press Return.
5. Type: mac-boot 
6. Press Return"

Sounds like an under informed dealer and a juicy rumour without substance.
