    Thank you, it's very useful for me, because my PC is on the floor, and I'm always pressing the power button with my foot or something.

    A short, quick and simple guide. I like the way you've presented the guide and have neatly taken pictures. You've also made it basically idiot-proof, it'd be extremely easy for basically anyone to follow this guide. However, for your next guide, make sure it's on a better topic that's useful to a broader audience and make sure it's a bigger guide then this one.

    Overall, it's not a bad guide and I hope to see more of these from you.
