I don't think it is a power button. It looks to me like someone cut out a stock TI ad image and had a bit of left over joystick in the picuture.

 

I can't find the exact image, but I recall a similar image from a TI advertisement with the joysticks sitting in front of the console. I'll bet the author of the book cut the image from the advert and pasted it onto the background image. Old school cut and paste with scissors and actual paste.
