I have an eMac, which is left on all the time.  When the power is
interrupted (due to power outage), the machine often refuses to startup.
The one solution I've found is to unplug the unit for about 5 minutes, and
then try again to power up.  So far, this has worked every time the unit
refuses to start.  Not sure why...
