Dudes;
Here is a wired Remote PC Power Switch that also has 2 USB Ports, a Mic jack and a Headphone Jack:

Important stuff not mentioned in the listing:
The cord length is 80 inches past the strain relief
where it exits through a card slot on the back of the case.
It has Motherboard connectors for:
Power Switch (with pass-through so the case switch will still work.)
Power LED
2 port USB Header
HD Audio and AC'97 Audio
I have a PC buried in one of my cabinets, and for some reason the motherboard ignores the Power-On After Power Failure BIOS setting.
I *understand* that all I needed was some wire and a momentary switch, but this is a much prettier solution, and I know the USB ports will come in handy.

thats kinda cool. i still prefer a standard arcade pushbutton wired to the motherbaord, but it is still pretty cool
