I wouldn't try that myself, as the power fails around Seattle an
average of once a month during the winter. I wouldn't want my PC
randomly glitching and booting whenever the winds pick up around here.
(Sometimes, during high winds, the power glitches so much that the
image on my CRT 'shivers' constantly. When that happens, I shut it down and
go read a book.)
It's easy to tell when the power failed. All my clocks have lost time...
