Well, reason for my question is that sometimes I encounter a computer that has locked so hard, that a C-A-D won't help at all. BSODing it on-demand might work then. I'm also of the perception (am I wrong?) that BSODing a computer is better than resetting it with the reset-button - it might save something to the hd, which a hard reset won't allow/do.
