About Michael Troy
Expertise
I have a fair amount of experience in peer-to-peer networking using Windows 95/98. I can answer questions about hardware, networking software, protocol settings, etc. I have some client-server experience, but not a lot with Windows-based servers. I can also give some advice on home network security: VPN, firewalls, anti-virus, etc.

Experience
I am the Director of Information Systems for a large law firm which connects about 300 users over five offices via a wide area network. We use client-server, peer-to-peer, WINS, remote access, VPN, DSL Internet, and proxy servers.

I also have a peer-to-peer network of six computers at home, with file and print sharing, remote access, and shared Internet access with a firewall.

I had a similar idea, you could try hot-wiring a mobile phone LED power supply to the power jumper on the motherboard, so that you can trigger your pc to turn on and off with a phone call. Though i'd look up voltages first as not to blow out your motherboard
