Has anyone ever built an external power switch that would allow you to turn on and off the computer and monitor without having to get into the cabinet? The game I've put together is actually meant for commercial/location use, and I don't want the staff of the establishment to have to get into my cabinet to turn on and off the monitor and the computer. I'm using a pretty standard LED computer monitor and desktop computer tower. Any help or ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Adam
