This one's about as crazy as the string remote trick, but maybe it'll work with some tinkering. If you're on a network and your card supports wake-on-lan then you could shut off the box and have another server send it a magic packet. If it does it everyday you'll have yourself a video alarm clock. Just a thought!

Here are the steps: 1) Aim carefully at the power-on button of the computer 2) Throw the remote at the button from 1) 3) Hope you hit it bonus: tie a string to the remote so you can retrieve it after you've turned on the computer. :-) just coulldn't help it.
