CTRL+ALT+DELETE

This short line of code was written by David Bradley when he was working for IBM, it was "just a five minutes job". He got tired of restarting his machine all the time, when he was working on the development of the PC, testing new softwares and pieces of hardware that would "hang up all the time". So he just invented a shortcut that would involve both hands, so you wouldn't type it by mistake just with one hand...

He made this famous quote: "I may be invented it, but i think Bill made it famous!"

Just watch Bill's face when Dave drops it...
