G'Day Roger, I hope the fishing went well today. Yes I know you don't actually wake up for another 50 minutes or so, stop being so pedantic.

I have a hardware question for you which I hope you can help me on.

I got my hands (legally) on a second hand machine for my wife. AOpen case, GA-6VTE+ motherboard, Pentium III 733MHz CPU, 256MB Kingmax PC133 SDRAM, 10GB HDD (got another identical one in the cupboard), 32MB AGP card, internal modem, NIC, SCSI, CD-RW. All for $200.00, problem is the power switch is missing.

I believe these are mometary switches, and plan to buy or make one instead of buying a new case as I'm doing this on the cheap. I have searched around and found this[^]. I am hoping I can use it to make the switch I need. I plan to rip out a front panel wire from one of the useless shells at work, one with a two pin plastic connector at the end. Then just solder the wires to the two probes on the back of the switch.

What in my amazing plan have I missed?
Why will it blow up in my face?
What would you do if faced with this catostrophic problem?
