Hey thanks SuperBigJay! I was thinking about asking someone to ship it to me but tought it was asking too much. I already ordered the mini power minder tough. I appreciate the offer very much! There's definitly some nice people here  ;D

Sears Canada will get you their Craftsman Auto Switch but it is $33 Can. To buy the exact same thing in the US at Sears is $20.

MrMojoZ:

Okay give me some insight here. The strip turns the slave ports on when the PC is plugged into the master port. Notice the PC does not have to be on for the slave ports to be activated. If I set the switch on the powersupply to off, the slave ports are turned off. Is this working right? I was wanting it to shutdown the slave ports when the PC was shutdown and thats not how it seems to work. Any ideas?

Next I'll try a standalone AT powersupply. I was already considering adding one to power leds etc. Might work well having it in the master port and setting the PC to turn on when it sees power.
