Late night top 10 ways to avoid getting your computer shut off:
1) Issue company memo for people to mind thier own business.
2) Wire the case so that the power button _really_ is the 'power button'.
    *BZZZT*
3) Install motion detector and voice siren:
    "*you are too close to the computer*"
3) Outline computer with petagram, get candles, light the candles when you
   leave your workstation.
4) two words: goat's blood.
5) stealth: disconnect power light LED.
6) not so stealth: machete
7) keep computer in safe.
8) guard dogs.
9) Cover computer with yellow biohazard stickers.
10) Cover the power button with organ donor card.

hope this helps,
-Alfred
