Well, I've only been able (so far :-) to use the "reset" key sequence, and
it seems to work.  "Control-Command-Power" resets the box when it's hung
(it really works!).  The "Programmer's Interrupt" is supposed to be
either Command-Power or Control-Power, I don't remember which.

Anyway, all-in-all, I'm real pleased with my IIsi!
