without attaching a keyboard to my server, I could press the power off
button and expect the linux to gracefully run `poweroff -n`, just like
the Window$. ctrl-alt-del is just a different way of `shutdown -r now`

in my building's ilft control room). well, still no life service until
now for those living on the 20th floor. hoho...
