Please. If you're going to put this hook in, which I think is a great idea, at least make it work on the standard hardware! And when the operating system is not very responsive. That's when you'll need it for debugging or resetting the system. Without taking the plastic apart, finding a part with no known suppliers, and soldering it to your motherboard. On Sun workstations, the "L1-A" key combination (pressed in exactly that order, with no intervening keys or key-ups) got you into OFW or its predecessor. (L1 was the top left key in the keypad to the left of the main keyboard.) We shipped it that way for decades without trouble. There are some pretty obscure keys on the XO keyboard -- howabout something like holding down the leftmost and rightmost "gradually increasing sized dots" keys in the top row, and then pressing the M-for-Mitch key?
