A time when cabling was not so much 'structured' than 'survival of the fittest'

Guilty as charged

Decades ago, I was asked to swap a cable round on the back of a server.

Said server had a LED on the back, which would light if you pressed the matching button on the front, to help identify it when you were round the back.

I was told to press said button, which I did.... which resulted in a catastrophic power-off. Which idiot designs two buttons next to each other?
