Where can I find a power switch like this?

Sometimes you can use your reset switch on your computer, if you have one. It is nothing more than a door bell switch.

I like this one because it has the leads to plug into the motherboard. I made a case once out of wood and plexiglass and used this to test it. A simple push switch on a door bell does the same thing. Some switches may be lighted.

Thank you both. I guess if I had thought to google "atx front power switch" or something similar, I would have scored. But I was thinking this was probably proprietary to the Compaq PC I am repairing. My bad for a flawed assumption.
