Nope, a lot of us probably aren't familiar with the 918.  But those of us
who did tell you about the key in the service position (okay, I said
maintenance position) weren't all that far off were we?

        A lot of you aren't familiar with the 918 are you? Stop telling me
to put the key in the SERVICE position!

        Key Position for the box: at least for newer series the key must
show to
        SERVICE to enable CTRL-B

        .. kinda along this same line.... for some reason I am unable to do
a
        CNTL-B at the console of my 918 to reset the system. CNTL-A works
fine. I
        have to power cycle the box to do a reset. Would a
SHIFT-[BREAK/RESET KEY]
        reset this function?  That doesn't seem to be working for me.  TIA

        BTW Stan - OOPS!

        Hi,

        So, I'm about to add some memory to one of our HP 3000s.  I reach
over to
        turn
        off the power strip (each of our 3000s and 9000s has a powerstrip
dedicated
        to it,
        and clearly labelled).

        ...and I flip the wrong strip's switch to "off".

        Panic!

        Wait...

        Since it was for a 3000/927LX, I just turned the power strip back
on, and
        the system came with with a "power fail" message at the console.

        Sigh.
