Getting to bed on time

For some reason, my son will not go to bed on time.  I've tried everything that I could think of.  Tomorrow, it will be the second day of no computer.  He loves the computer, but he STILL stays up too late.

I've already banned him from having friends tomorrow (after all, he'll be too tired to play with them anyway).  If he doesn't go to sleep on time tomorrow night, there's nothing left to take away.

Now before anyone says "He might not need the sleep": consider this...  He's been complaining of a light headache and nausea.  This has only been happening when he goes to bed too late.  Last night he went to bed on time - no problems - that is, until tonight, after 9:00pm, he started to have the same symptoms.

I guess I'll have to get use to the fact that he will be bored for a few days.  I'm hoping he will learn from this and stop being so stubborn.
