Ask on the modding sites. They will give you all kinds of switches. Some have lights on them when the computer is on, etc..

A good site: www.bit-tech.net

Good christ! $20 quid?!? Screw that, I'll stick with my .40 cent mouser button.

It's a nice button, no doubt. But a little too nuveau-riche for me.

Nah - that's a typo I think. It's clearly RF. IR is line of sight, and wouldn't make any sense being behind the PC.

IR is a bit touchy and has to be in line of sight.. with this it's uhf controlled so you can be anywhere within the radius and it will turn on
