The way I heard the story, the machine that passed QA was a little different, then they got a last minute directive from the Branding Team on where the logo had to be.
That required moving the reset button, but "it's just moving the logo, not an engineering change" so they skipped the proper QA cycle and made history.

Branding teams and marketing teams must not be allowed to work inside the shipping box: they must be limited to fancy packaging (and sometimes they even mess with that).

yes, that sounds so much like pretty lil "designer" brain, it hurts. Fremdschämen is a thing.

@silvermoon82 @timonsku @gsuberland Having worked on technical projects and been at the mercy of managers and marketers for over a decade, this is what I assumed had happened when I saw the picture. When stuff like this goes wrong its common for people to go "lol technician bad 😝" but in my experience it's almost always caused by some non-technical person pushing through a change.
