Has anybody done, or know of any site which offers tips on installing a remote sensor to power on a computer remotely, like a TV.

Thanks.

How about reading the most recent THG Denguru article on HTPC Remotes. :/

I haven't read the article either, but here is one remote that I found:

Try googling (or froogling) for the part number to see if anyone actually sells it.
Good luck!

Thank you. That was exactly something I was looking for. :)

The article is worth reading. Looks like the Thermaltake media lab remote also has a power function.

and the Mplay remotes from this company:

and even a few of the Soundgraph products:

The Tom's article mentions those remotes, but there was no mention of the power-on capabilities (unless I missed something.)
