...if you have to answer stupid questions all the time, I am also very interested in the progress and expected release date of a firmware that will be able to do a wake on LAN magic packet in the general direction of the Slimservers MAC address. This is, as far as my installation is concerned, the only thing missing for the wife to accept the solution... My 5 cents worth would be that this could be the first packet to leave the SB2 when pressing the power button - and then I have to be patient for the 30 sec.s it takes to boot the server. The shutdown functionality is worse (also considering the security ramifications) - an idea could be to let the box be able to let the server initiate a script; then all you had to define on the box was the path/arguments and the individual owner could put whatever he/she likes into the script (I understand that this DOES NOT solve the security issues ;-). Otherwise I am happy with just leaving the power profile of the BIOS to determine when to shut down the slimserver...
