[comp.sys.mac.programmer] A question about the interrupt switch

geoff@pmafire.UUCP (Geoff Allen) (08/31/89)

Hi!  Just a quick question about the programmer's switch on my Mac SE.

The reset button works fine, but the interrupt switch does nothing.
Isn't there supposed to be a debugger that's built in?

Thanks,

This is a strange coincidence, but, I was using someone elses Mac and
the interupt switch didn't work either.  I took of the plastic switch
and looked with a flashlight and there was no interupt switch! - only
the reset switch.  I advised him to take it back to the store.  Don't
tell me that Apple is now making them without interupt switches!
