I got a new button

Posted by Extravisual on Oct. 17, 2010, 9:02 p.m.

Since this case is not native to my computer, I had to really makeshift the button to get it to work. I had it just dangling off the wires, but then it broke off of its solder because it was shitty. So I got a new button at Radioshack and soldered the wires to it and mounted it on my case. I now have a giant red button sticking awkwardly out of my case. Not to mention my missing front panel. Aesthetics are for losers.

Edit:

Specs untrue. My computer is way worse than that =[.

Does it look like this?

And furthermore, did that image work? Some people say it doesn't when I can see it clearly.

@Kilin; yes it works, and lol.

I see it. It kinda looks like that. I took a pic with my mom's 700 dollar camera but was stupid and used the macro lens so the focus was off. I'll post it anyway though.

I'm still stupid. It was the macro setting, not lens. She has no macro lens as of yet.

That button kind of gives it an industrial look. I like it.

I wanted to get a giant one with like a cover on it and shit, but all they had of that sort was a toggle switch. Which while it technically would have worked, I preferred to use a proper non-toggle button. A non-toggle (spacing on the term) switch would have been even better, but they had none.

I might make a giant lever on my next computer. Just to power it on.

Combine a laptop with an etch a sketch. Just shake it to turn it off =p
