Northstar Woe is NOT Me

Apparently the Northstar needed a break. I turned it off for about
10 minutes, powered it back on and *poof* now it boots! What gives?

I'm not used to this "subtle shades of grey" thing. I'm used to
machines that either work or don't. This "I'm gonna freak out
and then be ok in a few minutes" thing is just weird to me.

Now it's running the STARTREK BASIC game from Creative Computing.

Frankly, I'm starting to wonder how long it really takes for
the voltage levels to drop low enough for things to be 'reset'.

Goofy. Am I just made or what?
