I have experience with the APC MasterSwitch units, they are rock solid, worth 
the money in my opinion.  you can telnet to them, serial into them, or SNMP 
them.  the ones I worked with gave you 8 outlets, independently controllable, 
as in power up when the APC powers up, or later when told to do so (and there 
was a time delay too, I think..) with power - down and power-cycle options in 
there too.  IP connectivity is a plus, including account/password protection.
