Leave the mouse on top of the power key on the keyboard? Actually, this may not be a good idea. One gets interesting results if one selects "SHUTDOWN" or "RESTART" while holding this key down. For example, I get the "You may now shut down the Mac" dialog that one would expect on an SE or a Plus. Then it restarts. But the keyboard is dead. The machine needs to be rebooted to get the keyboard back to life. I don't know if this would happen after a power failure. Tim Smith
