Choking a computer refers to the process of holding down the power button until the given computer manually shuts off about 5 to 10 seconds later (presumably "choking" because of a loss of power). Not the preferable thing to do when working on one, as it loses all unsaved data in the process... However, one of the only things most Microsoft programs respond to.

Idiot: Dude, my new computer has 16 quantum rapid pipeline array multitasking engines, 32 supercharged bit array analyzers, and 4 scanline 8-bit button-mapping process interrupters!
Intelligent Person: Wow, you must really love rich dummy talk - that computer was outdated 4 years ago and you just spent $3000 for it.
