Oooohhh Gadgets !


Just purchased the above item form PC World for £24.99. It enables you to control power to all peripherals via one socket. Basically I plug the PC into the black/grey socket and the TV, subwoofer and marquee lights into the white sockets. No power goes to the white sockets until I turn on the PC. A couple of seconds later and they all come on. Same happens when I power down the PC. After a couple of seconds everything goes off. Good for the environment too as everything is off rather than on standby.

Right, next job is to work out how to wire up and external switch so I can turn on the TV without having to open up the door in the cab. Or work out how to do it via the keyboard/mouse (bios setting).
