The switch is simple a "shortcut to ground" and is a direct input line of the power supply unit (I know this, because I have troubles with my power supply and studied the electrical wirering, etc.). On E55 I also think, that the switch is controlling the power supply also, as I can switch off at any moment in Linux and HP-UX. In the 712, the switch is definitly under software control, as the software can simple ignore it ... and much more... Bye Christoph P.
