I am pretty sure that at least the later (slot-loader) iMacs have the PMU
chipset in them as opposed to the CUDA chipset, making them candidates for
power-management stuff. I don't know if the power button can be used to
put the system to sleep, but you can just run /sbin/snooze (and add a
button/menu item in your WM of choice to run it) to put the box to sleep
if not.
