Activated by a phone, the Mac Power On/Off + Aux ($199.95) remote power-control unit detects incoming phone calls and powers up a remote Mac, providing remote users access to a host Mac without keeping the host running when it's not needed. From Server Technology (Sunnyvale, CA), the unit operates in three modes. In the remote-power-switch mode, the host Mac powers on when a specific number of phone rings is detected; it automatically powers off when the call is disconnected. In the AUX-port mode, the unit permits the Mac's modem and answering machine or fax to share a single phone line. The reboot mode lets you phone the host Mac's modem to reboot a remote Mac workstation, gateway, or server that has locked up.
