I pressed the turbo button

I'm convinced that button did nothing

It did. You used it to make your CPU slower for old timing-dependent games

Yeah, they probably inverted it because it's weird to market a “slow” button

My 386 had turbo on practically all the time except when playing earlier era games where half speed made them playable

It really was an unturbo button
