timered startup

Name: Anonymous 2007-03-31 21:08 ID:epQVEj1H

I'm setting up a torrent box to conserve power, but I don't want the torrents running during the day when the internet is actually being used.
To get the computer to shut down at a specified time I'm sure is easy to figure out.
What I'm interested in is having the computer turn on at a set time.
I've already got everything to run automatically from boot, I just would like to have it power on on it's own.

Are there any current products that do this, or instructions on how to easily make one?

Make a robot that pushes the button, hook it up to an alarmclock

Why not just not have it download or upload during certain times?  I know utorrent lets you do that.

well, the main goal here of having a specific computer for torrents is to save electricity here.
The house is already running 6 computers, all of which are power-hungry beasts.

I would like it to be off when it's not being used to save power, and if I can get it to be completely automated in turning on and off, that would be the best.

better to buy a lightweight computer and have it run all the time, than turn a computer on and off every day and get monthly component failures.

Mac

Even an old one. It's in system prefs under "energy saver", then "schedule"

old computer parts out of my garage, a mac does not make.

All wonderful solutions that I have already considered, but have rejected for various reasons. Mostly money.

If the computer has a wake-on-lan feature, then have another computer switch it on.  There is a program called PowerOff for windows that lets you do this.
