### Cabling it up
To keep everything neat, I used a through-hole solderable breadboard to mount all the components and keep everything neat. Header pins let us interface directly between the motherboard, Raspberry Pi, and the chassis buttons and LEDs using female-female jumper cables, again keeping everything nice and neat and easy to understand. The required components include two transitiors, two resistors, and a couple jumper wires. The transitors let us control the power and reset switches with a GPIO pin, while the resistors keep us from frying the LEDs (and the Raspberry Pi).
