I believe all Suns with power management (ie. starting with sun4m) can
do that. (OK, so perhaps not the 4/6x0, but the smaller ones.) SGI boxen
can do it as well, and they can also turn on again at a predetermined
time. I'm just missing wake on lan capabilities; it happens much too
often that I sit at work and say, well I've got a few minutes, I could
just do this or that on the SGI at home -- if only it was on.
