Yes, the older machines had a turn-in power button, which would be nice. The issue with my machine is that I'm running NetBSD, so I don't have an Energy Saver control panel. Ideally, I'd be able to program the same thing into the Mac PMU, but I don't have the documentation to allow me to do that...I believe the old Macs allowed you to press the power switch in and turn it. On my PowerMac 8500, you can't do that, but in the Energy Saver control panel in Advanced Settings there is a checkbox, "Restart automatically after a power failure", which I believe is what you want. Not exactly the most logical place for it, but whatever.
