Ctrl-Alt-Del inventor makes final reboot

David Bradley, one of the "dirty dozen" engineers who created the original IBM PC at Boca Raton, Florida, is to retire this week after 29 years with the company. Bradley's accomplishments are numerous - he wrote the BIOS code for the original PC and rose to become architecture manager at the PC group. But David's claim to fame is that he devised the most famous - and probably most used - three key combination in computer history: Ctrl-Alt-Del. Source

He's the greatest :D.

He saved me from a bunch of stuff. Especially when I used to watch porn at the public library and had to shutdown the popups before the librarian saw me. The man is a hero :lol:
