Just to make it clear, the video basically shows that when a mobile phone is placed near the CD-rawer on the Dell, that the PC switches off randomly and also makes the phone receive a txt message apparently. The only way to get the PC working again is to kill the power. Read the little blurb next to the video for more info

actually, the shut down happens when you *first receive* a text message...Which, I imagine a lot of people do.
Nice one, Dell!
If you have a dell optiplex GX520 and a mobile phone try this but save your work first !
By putting the phone near the cdrom drive it will automatially go in to some weird stand by >>>when you recieve a sms/txt<<< and you cant bring it back to live if you dont shut it down first (either by cutting power or holding down power button for four seconds)
