Article: [oats-sig] waking up pc's?

I think many BIOSs include wake on LAN, mouse and/or keyboard so
perhaps you could do something with one of those? Keyboard with
headstick or perhaps a hacked mouse button if you don't use the
pointer usually? You'll get reduced battery life as some power will
get consumed.

So which BIOS's are fully accessible :-^
