Ye Gods! that's the second time I've referred to that book in the past
three weeks.  Come to think of it, that's the second time I've
referred to that book ever!
Well, according to Operating the DSP80A/DSP90 (revision 1 November '85)
you just press the button, though I would say that on my 80A (I don't
need no steenking 68020!) you do have to hold the button pressed for
about a second before the thing will shutdown.

Cheers

Colin
