What a big deal over nothing!
I have a Sprit desk, it doesn't have an on / off switch either.
I think you will find other manufacturers skip this 'feature' too.
Luckily for us in the UK, our power outlets (sockets) have a small switch, this allows you to turn off the power if you don't need it.
Unplugging the plug from it's socket with the resulting air gap apparently has the same effect.
Why is this in the arrangers forum?
