with limited mobility in her upper body and arms. She'd really like to find a
remote control that can turn her computer off and on at home (she has an
assistant while in classes or labs). I thought of using a simple remote switch,
but that only works when the device can be left in the "on" position
and the power source connected or disconnected (like a lamp). She uses a Mac,
so using a scheduled start up/shut down sequence is certainly possible... but
not quite what she's looking for. She'd like to minimize power usage when she's
not using the computer, and her schedule isn't always predictable, so really a
remote would be ideal.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
