Another use for the Power LED: just now I read some motherboards send diagnostic codes to it, by way of blinks.

Any board that sends blink codes to the Power LED should also have a backup LED on the board itself. This is where I miss onboard speakers and beep codes...

You can still use a speaker, the posts are there, you just have to attach it :)

I just found one in a zip lock bag, it still has 2003 air in it :D
