These things are great -- especially with the sexy black cable option :)
I'm surprised there is not more talk of this, but what I did in my cab was buy a motherboard that had a power-on by keyboard option. It just so happens the Asus I bought could be powered on by a specified key combination to eliminate accidental power-ons. You can turn on the the computer then by just pressing a button on the 2nd player side, then a button on the 1st player side.
Since everything is plugged into the smartstrip, pressing these two buttons not only turns on the computer, but also the speakers and monitor. Really slick, and no need to mount any power buttons on the cab :)
