[ about having trouble getting new Mac II to stay on ]
David, are you using the power on key on the keyboard?
It's the key with the left-facing triangle on it.
If you're using the key on the back of the II, I can
understand a bit what you're talking about, since that
switch (I believe) pulls a relay which, if the key is
held in for too long, will drop again, causing the
behavior you mantioned.
The key on the keyboard doesn't do that since it's an
on-only key, while the button on the back is on and off.
If that's not what you were talking about, never mind.
