not too sure what you are asking for but cant you just take one from an old case, if u dont have one try a mom n pop.

for real coolness, just put one of those knife switches on the side of the case.

The power button is just a Momentary On pushbutton. It doesn't have to be a pushbutton though.

You can buy one at Radio Shack (variety of styles) and solder it to a wire with a header on it.

Most of their switches require a hole so you'll need to hollow out a couple of blocks maybe and drill a hole.

Here's some momemntary on switches:

Why not just have a different color lego that isn't hooked to other legos but is hooked to a switch and you push in the lego to turn it on? Basically just like a regular case uses.

Just like FP said all ya need is a Momentary switch... All it does is short the jumpe on the mobo so it kicks the computer on... I've used a screwdriver to do this before lol They have toggle and push buttons switches just go to radio shack or any electrical store or for that matter Home Depot or Lowes would have what you need...

well, I used to just have the mboard set to after power failure power up automaticaly...so when you plug it in it starts...well it decided to stop doign that for no reason..lousy bios's. Yea I use lots of strange metal things 2 starc certain systems, knices, screw drivers, paper clips, bay covers...anythign megal. but in the lego box the the 2 prongs are Totally at the bottom of the case...so it is a Total pain to get to. Ill try that radio shack stuff if I can figgure it out. I am not electricaly minded at all.
