unfortunately not all, however some systems can also be tricked to power up if
you just put a  jumper across the power switch ont he board

: The reality was that slug.org.au, being your typical ATX PC system,
: didn't come back up again when power was restored

It's my understanding that most ATX systems have a switch in BIOS that will
allow the machine to boot itself back up automatically after a power
failure.

Cheers,
