I know what you mean, but the alternatives are hiring someone to replace the wall socket with a decent one, or if the thingemebob has a plug pack, solder a switch into the plug pack cable. The power board is easier. Unfortunately cheap consumer stuff doesn't tend to have have switches (maybe you could pull the plug), since it never crashes why would you need one anyway...
