alternative to standard power switch

[jlin453]

I'm modding my case and need to remove the power/ reset switches. I'm looking for something that can be mounted at the 3.5" area. Any suggestions other than regular push-type or a push-type that doesn't look too bad?

dude, get one of those barrel locks (with the round keys) and set it up to be the power switch.. :) no key, no computer :-D

You could also try making one of those card readers that when you insterted the card it would turn on the computer, kinda like those hotel keys that open the locks. I think there was a thread about that on here somewhere I'm not sure where tho. You could then mount the reader right behind the 3 1/2 bay and cut a slot in the bay cover that you could slide the card through.
Personally I think that would be tight.

Touch switch, wire the plate to anywhere on the metal case.
