I have a home made computer that has a Fractal Design Define R5 case and it has a little restart button. Since all of my recent computers have been homemade, I really thought all computers had a restart button.
I haven't had any sleep issues with this new insider build yet, but I will keep my eyes wide open.
Actually, last Wed, 12/14. And the 14986 ISO is available now on the MS link. Ignore the dumb words on the link...it's MS jargon for "you have to be an insider". That's just the way it posts.

Motherboards have had a reset set of jumpers that have been available for a long time, ever since the Pentium machines. The front panel I/O connectors have included this as standard, which most motherboard manufacturers follow. Specialty motherboards, especially those made for OEMs (Dell, HP, etc) don't always follow the standard, though.
That being said, though, if your case doesn't have a reset switch but your motherboard does have the connector, you can rig one with a very simple instant push button and some wire and a small jumper. But only if you really need to - you can buy a new car with the switch pretty cheaply.
I have been building PCs for 25 years, so the only thing I buy that is made is server hardware and laptops, and other electronics, of course. But I build my desktop every 5-6 years, as evidenced by my current desktop. By building, I control the hardware, and am able to upgrade what I want when I want / need to. Though the original build I am currently running started well over 5 years so, with storage upgrades ( mechanical HDs --> SSDs) as well as Graphics Cards ( nVidia GTX 260 --> 560 Ti --> 970) my machine holds its own with what I need it to do.
Last desktop bought was a Gateway 2000, on which I upgraded the RAM (8 --> 32 ,B) and then CPU (486/SX --> 486 DX2), before building my own Cyrix DX4 80 MHz based machine with 64 MB of RAM.
^^^ This.
Here is a good view on how it is supposed to look - the entire resource on how ot build one is pretty decent, if a bit outdated.
