Does anyone know where to get a button switch like the power switch on the G4 Cube?

[Imaginer]

Imagine if we all mod our cases like that. Hmmmmmm....

Where should this item be?

 

[Imaginer]

Oh come on! This is one feature I would like to see on our own cases. Then those Apple zealots would not have something to chant about.

<rant>I don't like that &quot;button&quot;. I accidentally turned one off once without even knowing it. Why does everyone always want to deviate from the standard off-white, square, cut yourself up when you work in 'em, gotta lift weights to push the power button cases? Huh? What's wrong with those!? I don't want to be cool or fruity or anything! I want my computer to work and be upgradeable and play games really well!!! Screw Apple and all it's cutesy stuff!</rant>

WHEW! Sorry about that.

sure a button that shuts the thing off when i brush it, yeah i want that, i lost an hours work last week when i shut off my system instead of ejecting the cd. . . and the buttons arnt to close, i just wan't thinking and bloop, black screen of stupidity

Yeah but remember, it takes 4 seconds of a hold down to actually turn the PC off!

Not one second of a swipe.

So something similar or am I losing it.

It doesn't have to take 4 seconds to turn off your computer. Change that setting in either Power Management in Control Panel or in your BIOS. You can configure it so that when you press the button once, your ATX compliant computer with ATX compliant OS performs a soft shutdown. Screw &quot;wiping&quot; a button. I only wipe on thing and it's not my computer. If you have to wipe your computer, that must mean that it's a piece of you know what!

<< Yeah but remember, it takes 4 seconds of a hold down to actually turn the PC off! >>

That's a setting in the motherboard's BIOS. You can change it. I can understand why this delay annoys you, I friggin hate it, but you can turn the delay off.

LMAO Rogue.

Ok ok... Cross that out. A regular momentary button switch then.

Now to find blue leds...
