Heh ,or the old ACC boxes (I think the Danube), where the original design was to not have ANY front-panel LEDs. The 'managers' didn't like that, so all they did was create a simple oscillator circuit that blinked an LED.
The LED has NO correlation to the real status of the chassis. The chassis can be locked up solid, and that LED will continue blinking merrily.
