It's been that way with PC's and Mac's for 15 years.

Your PC is not truly "off" when you hit the power switch. That is the ATX specification. To start a PC all that happens is the shorting of two pins on the motherboard with the switch. There is power on the motherboard until you reach behind and flip the switch on the power supply itself.

Before it gets brought up, the battery on all PC's is to keep the CMOS clock settings alive, not to boot the PC.
