There has been commentary on this before but had never happened to me until
last night--I nearly had a heart attach!! The 16 page document (that, of
course, was not backed to to floppy) was due today. *ARGH* The machine
would not boot--only a blank black screen. Fortunately, I checked the
interrupt switch which was stuck in its depressed position. Evidently,
the "programmer's switch" does not fit the new case properly and sticks.
One would think that if Apple had not redesigned this feature, they at least
would have made their existing implementation usable.
