[Coco] Replacement power switch for coco3?

[Rietveld Rietveld]

I am not sure how popular my power switch fix will be with the purists since I had to notch the side of the case; but it does make it easier to turn on when my coco is tucked into the desk.

That was me! That is a good idea, thanks!

I'll have to see if I might get Mark Marlette to quote me on some work to do this.

I then went to Canadian Tire and picked up a generic ON/OFF rocker switch that I spliced in to the power cord before the power supply.   I made a small cut out and flush mounted to the side of the case
