[Coco] Interrupt 02

[Charles D. Shrader II]

Interrupt 02 is NMI - which I'll wager means Non-Maskable Interrupt.  I
will guess that this interrupt had to do with some sort of error
correction in some very early 8088 chips to avoid system crashes.

  I have been studing for my up coming A+ exams and came across 
soemthing that I did not know
until now. So I will post it as a question, just to see how many of you 
can answer this.

     WHAT WAS IRQ2 ON A PC SUPPOSE TO BE USED FOR?
