back in the days of my student flat-sharing community I came back from a week long trip and found my computer to be on. It turned out that my flatmate's cat jumped on the keyboard and turned it on. So I'm very happy to discrimenate against pets using input devices!!!

@Martin: fair enough, I must have missed the usability group in the review section.
