I think Paul must have been referring to this story (maybe not the same link though).

Errr...senior moment obvoiusly. I meant to link to this. I've corrected it now, just to make it look like you're all rambling. The quote, of course, comes from (the book version of) 2001 A Space Odyssey. It was never spoken in the original film. Full quote = "The thing's hollow...it goes on forever...and...oh my God! It's full of stars!" 2001 trivia - Did you know Leonard Rossiter was in 2001, playing a Russian scientist? Now one of his lines is the absolute best quote from the film, end of! So I said to the customer: "Have you tried turning it off then turning it back on again?" I never sold another HAL9000 again." See, even in 1968 we were giving that advice to users.
