      reBot – using Lego for bare metal deployments on Intel NUC
      <http://www.cloudbase.it/rebot/>

Cloudbase uses a lot of Intel Next Unit of Computing (NUC)
<http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/nuc/nuc-kit-d54250wyk.html> for
internal testing and development work. NUCs lack the ability to power
them on and off remotely, like higher grade servers do with technologies
likeIPMI
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligent_Platform_Management_Interface>, AMT
<http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/intel-active-management-technology.html>,
iLO
<http://h17007.www1.hp.com/us/en/enterprise/servers/management/ilo/index.aspx>.
In pure hacker spirit, Cloudbase invented their own to have some fun.
Spoiler alert: it involves Lego.
