I'd like to use the power settings option on my desktop so I can easily
adjust power consumption (I leave it on overnight because it controls a
weather station). I can't figure out the magic sequence to display power
options in the notification area. "Power" is greyed out in the toolbar
properties, notification area. I can't launch mobility center because it's
not a notebook.

It seems dumb to actively prevent someone from putting power settings in
their notification area; why wouldn't one want to actively adjust your
system's power consumption? Any ideas?
