not all PS'es have power switches, unfortunately. :(

I miss the days of AT power supplies; where 'off' meant 'OFF'; and
physically disconnected power, instead of controlling some fiddly little
solid-state bits which may or may not decide to do what the switch tells
them to do. (depending on the OS, the phase of the moon, etc).
