    Interesting. Yet, I don't know. I'm not infallible, yet how often I've
    accidently done this and recorded the behavior? Few, and never did I pay
    attention to the behavior to say that "this or that response is expected."

    I just tried this on my ThinkPad...yep. No response. Thanks for that
    tidbit. I know my TiBook at home responds with a dialog to Restart,
    Sleep, Cancel, Shutdown, but that has been the Macintosh behavior for
    decades; at least 13 years in my experience.

    I would press the power button on the server in question, but no need to
    give that box another jump start; based on the behavior last night
    though, you're probably right.

    Thanks,
    Tim
