    Not colour labels on the inside but actual labels on the plugs (cable) & sockets (motherboard), especially for the case LEDs and buttons.

      The case connections are always the worst for me, mean maybe there’s some standard and if you’re not old you can read the tiny print on the board…but I always end up following the manual to be sure. Especially the cases with the single + or - for the device ugh out of all things that aren’t standardized why is it the damn case connections?

      Actually out of my decades of doing computers that’s the part that makes me wonder if the computer will turn on when I press the button first level alone the HDD activity light going properly. I couldn’t care less about that but I did like watching it to know my computer was doing something in the 90s.
