You walk up behind them, hit the menu button, and yell "FRONT ROW!", at which point their computer (default setting: accept any random remote) will /slowly/ fade to black, and then /slowly/ fade into a TV-like UI the user has probably never seen before. It's /more/ fun to walk around with a defcon 2008 badge hacked to mash the "menu" button ten times a second rolling through the different pairing codes :)

Lion removed Front Row, so you'll just mess up their music.
