Sorry that was actually a bit of a facetious joke; DRM (Digital Restrictions Management)could,effectively, make DRM compliant PCs such that there are programs that they cannot run, hence they would not be Turing complete. I didn't mean that DRM would help in firing sysadmins. The rest of it is good advice though. Carrots work better than sticks (except that some 'donkeys' apparently like pain.
