Your can type "warm" on your keyboard when you have in your path a nice
little assembly language program called "warm.com."

It was widely available on bbs as well as distributed and critiqued by
PC Magazine a few years ago.  There is also a program "cold.com" performing
a keyboard-initiated cold boot.
