Nope. I've just got a humble Qube, so I didn't even realize there
was an LED on the Raq. I think we have a couple at work, so I'll try
to check it out. It certainly would be cool to have that, too...
I'm not sure if I saw anything in the Linux code to support that -- does
the LED blink on and off when it is time to power off the system?
