And just as a side note, don't ever, ever, *ever* shutdown an Octane from its power switch. Use 'shutdown -p' and then sit there for a minute until it asks you if you really mean to shut it down (or not), and type "yes." The Octane will then shut itself off. The power button's only valid use is to turn an Octane on.

I've never heard this before. May inquire as to your experience that led to this advice?
