DOES NOT support auto power on as stated in the description

If you intend to use this PC in automated applications, please note that the BIOS in this version does NOT have a setting that allows the system to turn itself back on automatically when power is restored after a power failure. The description above specifically states that the device supports it, but there is no setting in the BIOS to enable it (as is common with most PCs). This means that in the event of a power failure of this device, the device operator must press the power button on the housing. If you're using it on a desktop PC where usage is always present, that's not a problem. Attempts to solve this problem by the vendor were unsuccessful and they sent me instructions on how to enable auto power on for a completely different bios brand. Not helpful at all. The support forum is also useless as I can't register on the forum. Will have to send this back and try another brand which hopefully does what it says on the tin.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Compatibility
