<Switched the machine on, and waited. And waited. Nothing. No lights on the
<keyboard, nothing on the display. The LED status whatsis at the rear
<wibbled around a bit but I didn't pay close attention to what it was
<doing. The disks never spun up.
There is a nearly hidden switch between the leds and the MMJ connector,
try both positions.
Also DEC spins the drives up after the boot starts not at powerup.
The monitor if there is no disks(at all) should display a countdown as
it does self test. The monitor can be interacted with for diagnostic
uses.
