I thought so too. I was almost more intrigued with the guys setup for testing. Lazy Susan amongst other things. TL;DW. Summary please? It's a demonstration on how to debug a computer that is unceremoniously shutting down and/or resetting. If a system always shuts down, it could be PROCHOT (no thermal paste). If a system resets at least part of the time due to the problem, it could be related to a reset issue of some sort. It could also be a code problem, where the ACPI "power button" is being triggered. (Which might be bad RAM. Hard to say.) You can also have crashes that don't trap, and instead the machine resets. And reversing the roles of the reset and power buttons is standard practice for this sort of thing. It helps you spot and verify, which switch is acting up. Paul |

If so, then you have "one less thing to debug". I keep a spare momentary contact (normally open) switch with contacts on it, for motherboard headers. And I can replace the chassis switch with my spare switch, for proof testing. Paul |
