I can confirm that both an SGI Indy and an SGI Indigo both have reset
buttons on the front. The Indy's needs to be poked with something pointy,
and the Indigo's sits behind its disk door, but they're there.

Also, my HP 9000 715s have buttons marked "TOC" on their sides, near the
power switch, which seem to function as reset buttons.

Thinking about it.. there's a reset button on the back of each of my
Apollos.

The NeXTs don't even really have power switches.

No SPARC-class Sun workstation I've ever seen has a reset button, and I'm
reasonably certain that none of the Ultra Enterprise machines I run at
work have reset switches.

I've forgotten why we were discussing this.

ok
