Control-Alt-Delete

We have all used it. Do you happen to know how it actually came about? Engineer David Bradley, a designer on early IBM computers, said he invented the combination as a shortcut during the software development. It was not supposed to be available any place else but software companies got wind of it and it spread. Gates said that the keys to log on or access the control panel should not have been that complicated and the reason for it was that it required users to use both hands and was intended to avoid accidental keystrokes from rebooting a computer. Personally it might be a good thing that it requires the use of two hands because clearly they were thinking ahead of game to make sure that anyone can use computers without messing anything up or changing things that they accidentally did not want to change.
