Is there a way to have my computer turn itself on at a set time every
weekday? It would be nice not to have to wait for the boot up. I don't
want it to logon by itself, just power up. Thanks.



I haven't heard of this on a PC. But I know you can do this with a
MAC. Another possibility is to just leave the PC on all the time, and
enable sleep mode.

Yep, it's been available on Dell computers for quite a few years.


. . . and on lots of others too!
