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).
I have a tower but it's on my desk (and the button is on the top facing the ceiling) so using my foot to turn it in would be a slight issue lol
Flexibility training.
Never put your PC on the floor unless it's your company's shitty workstation tower that really needs to be replaced.
I got one of those Mac minis and the button is on the bottom!
Apple is pretty shitty at design though especially for a company so renowned for design haha.
I have a bunch of mini Linux computers too and they have mostly normal buttons but they are tiny. Probably too tiny for toes.
People tend to have laptops these days, only gamers need towers but gamers don’t want their PC to be Vacuum cleaner neither.
