iLO is a stand alone system as you proberbly know with it's power supply etc, can't say I have ever seen anything like that for a desk top.

The cleaners will only go and turn it off

All our servers have iLO supplied by HP, god knows how much it costs though, we have 6 data centres with upwards of 10000 servers.

Desktops running the Intel vPro or the AMD equivalent will give (some of) that functionality
