Well my small[ish] children show no inclination to turn off anything
[lights, taps, televisions ...]  so I havent' had to worry about the
power-button on my myth box, which does a contolled shutdown of the
machine.

I'd like to know how you turn your myth box on using the IR remote
though.  I'm using the IR receiver that came with my Hauppauge Nova-t
and IFAIK I can't use this for powering up [I'd be happy to be proved
wrong].
