I havent seen this option for a while , but a few years back im sure it was all the rage for motherboards to allow you to set auto timers in bios.

You could look at Wake on Lan as well.

I think if you opend up your computer and messed with the power pins a bit you can get your computer to where it will start up when its plugged in, then all you have to do is get a timer. I'm pretty sure i've plugged my pins in wrong befor while building acomputer and got it to do this.
