Is there a way to have a set of computers startup at a designated time using ARD?

I remember under Network Assistant there was an option, but haven't noticed anything under ARD.
 
Under Panther's energy saver, there's an option for startup/shutdown time - you could kick off a shell script that would set that option. It'd just be a matter of finding where that info is stored in the system and modifying the settings.

As far as an easy, GUI-based way to do it in ARD2, I don't think one exists, other than individually controlling each machine and going into System Preferences to change it.
