tristn:

wait could you explain “rewinding” to me again?

and what do you mean “rebooting” has something to do with bootstraps? boots don’t have straps.

Wait, wut?  Are you being sarcastic?  Rewinding would be derived from the spool on which a cassette / tape’s magnetic strip is/was wound.  You “re-wind” the strip onto the spool.

As for reboot, yeah, it does have to do with boots, and straps.  Here’s a link:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping_(computing)  and also - boots do and did have straps.  This was sarcastic right?  I’m confused.
