mine had a button cap and dad used to joke that he bought it on black market and it originates from the nuclear missile launch button.

That button cap is important with a lot of kids around.

Do people not still do this? People must still have towers, and they must have on buttons, right?

I've not built a tower in a good few years now so maybe I'm out of touch and they're all voice activated now or use DNA scanners from Gattaca idk xD

People learned that computer cases shouldn't go on the ground, unless you want them to be a dust magnet (especially if you have a case with intakes on the bottom for the GPU).
