Reboot: In
computer terms, a "reboot" of a computer is a condition in which
power is stopped and then restarted, so that nothing of the
computer's previous operating session has any bearing on its new
session, with the exception of data stored on non-volatile devices
such as a disk drive. The term has extended to entertainment, such
as video games, comic books, and television shows, to describe a
condition in which a popular property is re-imagined from a set of
familiar initial parameters. In wargaming, the term can be used to
describe a game system similarly re-imagined, such as Advanced
Squad Leader, which was a major re-write of four separate games
of the original Squad Leader game series. |
