I guess you could fit it somewhere in hardware / games      I still find it funny that the OP used the subject of "Haha Fire!". I get a mental image of a pyro with a flamethrower. Haha, ok, so i was whining to a bud of mine who didnt have as much on the line by trying new STUFF, and we thought of something, SINCE the button was melted, i decided to just cut the wires, and complete the circet myself...AND shabam it works FINE, CEPT it took like 5 mins to get all the hardware recognized again anyways, im glad to let you guys get a laugh at my expense. i might post some picks of my new power switch once i make oneI'm not laughing... I'm frightened. Ditto.
