Disputed on the basis of having seen it all too often :)
Note, I added the word *important* on purpose. ;-)
Reminds me of a story. As an teen I learned the lesson of what happens when you
flip the power switch of the computer in the middle of writing an as-yet-unsaved
document. It was an important lesson, but the particular document wasn't. Nor
were any for a number of years.
But, ever since I make sure work is saved frequently, and avoid power buttons.
:D I don't try to prevent their existence, due to their utility.
