usb switch
Basically, when my PC is "ON", the USB ports receive power and turn on the relay which allows the 120V to flow through and operate things. This is a low tech solution - I cannot turn the port on and off remotely via software. For that there are lots of printer port mods out there.
My PC does not feed USB power when shut down - your mileage may vary.
** DO NOT ATTEMPT UNLESS YOU WANT TO FRY YOUR PC, BE ELECTROCUTED AND THEN BURN YOUR HOUSE DOWN....
