So it's called a 'power actuator button,' huh? I work strange hours, lot's of evening sports events, and auction ended before I got home. �3.00 plus �1.00 shipping. What is that in American dollars? I don't think I need one now because my methyl ethyl keytone/acetone based glue seems to have provided a strong bond on my locking tab test piece. The bond is strong enough to allow the tab to be bent before snapping back into the slot. The button extension piece is drying and seems solid and it doesn't need to endure the same stress. I have just completed the last major upgrades I had planned for this computer so the case should not need to come on and off. Thanks for your help, I will keep that in mind for future reference if I decide to replace it. Mike -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
