	Virus Reboot -- Recommendations and Resources (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		ReBoot is considered by many as one of the greatest cartoons ever.
		A hard reboot (also known as a cold reboot) is when power to a computer is cycled (turned on and off) or a special reset signal to the processor is triggered (from a front panel switch of some sort).
		It is analogous to the process of rebooting a computer, clearing out all working memory and reloading the operating system from scratch; neglecting offline storage, none of the previous session's activities have any bearing on the product of the current session, except in the memory of the operator (writer).

		Reboot reboots your Nokia 9200 series communicator without having to remove and reinsert the battery.
		After a reboot, a 9210 communicator should have around 3MB of RAM free (well over this, in fact, on a 9210i).
		With Reboot, you just use it from the Extras bar and after the operating system is up and running you'll be pleased to note that the phone's on and ready to use as normal.

		The first method is to reboot or power up the computer; the second and third methods is to use the Debug program in MS- DOS or PC-DOS.

		Some computers do not display any information about their BIOS during a reboot, or they may not display the exact information you (or the technician or engineer) require.

	SyFy Portal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		"Rebooting" a TV show or film franchise is basically shorthand for basically just taking the original concept and perhaps names of the characters from the source material and then essentially just starting from scratch.
		The "rebooted" stories are then tied no further to the events or personalities portrayed in the original.
		A rebooted Star Trek will never erase the years of great episodes we have enjoyed from the original series, "The Next Generation," "Deep Space Nine," "Voyager" and "Enterprise," even if future Trek never acknowledges they existed.

	Annoyances.org - Windows Hangs after Soft Reboot (Windows XP Discussion Forum)
		Yesterday my otherwise-stable XP box started hanging at the Windows splash screen, but only after a soft reboot, e.g., after choosing "Restart" from the XP shutdown menu, or after hitting the reset button on the box.
		The hang occurs regardless of whether I'm booting in Normal Mode or in Safe Mode, and regardless of whether the restart was invoked from inside Windows XP or from a DOS program It appears that as long as the system boots from a soft reset XP will hang at the splash screen.
		As the problem occurs only on a soft reboot it's reasonable to assume that either the RAM or the BIOS is at fault.

		When Versamail crashes, the phone reboots and ALL Versamail email settings including logins, passwords, settings, all emails that were stored on the phone, etc. If you're on the road away from your computer, this not the happiest of situations.
		Versamail locked up the phone so badly that neither a soft reboot, nor a "soft restart" (that's an undocumented Palm tech-support recommended reboot that's between a soft & hard reboot) could resusciate the phone.
