I planned to have a cron job to shut down the server every night.  As
someone's already said, the problem here is working out when to do
this.  However, I'd just go for midnight on weekdays, and maybe 2am on
Saturdays.  For the rare exceptions, I'd have to remember to disable
the cron.

To turn the server on again, I'd set my bios to power on automatically.
Unfortunately, my bios doesn't have separate settings for weekdays, so
I'd have to have the server on unecessarily during weekdays when I'm at
work.  An alternative would be a wake on lan solution, but I've no idea
if this would work over wireless and with my server's non-built-in
wireless card.
