Probably not the PC, but you can definitely damage the operating system and
the integrity of your filesystem by rebooting the ugly way. The simple
solution is to Reboot from within Windows (or whatever OS you're running).
I don't have a reset button either, and I don't really miss it. I don't
really need it, either. Start->Turn Off Computer->Reboot works well, and
when I get into a hard freeze, I just hold down the power button for awhile
to turn it off and then turn it on again.
