The Guy Responsible For Ctrl-Alt-Del

According to this article, the Ctrl-Alt-Del key sequence (aka the three finger salute) was invented by David J. Bradley as a way to reset early PCs without turning them off. There's a video clip with Bradley explaining how he "invented [Ctrl-Alt-Del] but Bill Gates made it famous". BillG's reaction is priceless. (Via SlashDot)
