Wow, I had no idea that the forum "for the rest of us" had finally
appeared.  *I* have a system for turning my Mac on which saves oodles of
effort.  First I put my hand around the back left, feeling for the toggle
switch.  Then, if the MAC IS NOT ALREADY ON (please note this condition) I
press the toggle switch in the only direction it will move.  If you try
pushing it in the wrong direction, IT WILL RESIST, DON'T FORCE IT!  

Hope this has been helpful.
