I see many on line shops are selling a patch block with a foot switch on it. It is a big large round button type switch, and even has a big red footprint on it.
Asked around the usual JB and DSE haunts, but they never heard of it.
I have 37 million LEDs just on my computer gear. Feel it is about time I did something.

yep, that's the one.
Except they were about $29 on line. still do you want a free $50 one or a free $29 one? Perhaps you get a choice.

Which swith? On the device or the GPO?
Which swith for ipswith mith?
Some (mostly old) appliances draw one or more watts in standby while newer ones can go down to 0.1W or less. I believe the choice should be based on what do you have around, how much does it draw in standby and what's the on/off use ratio to see if keeping it disconnected will turn out in a tangible energy saving.
Also convincing every IT boss in the planet to ditch Java or .NET and going back to building software using efficient programming languages/ environments would save a two figures percentage of processing power in every data center, in other words lots of energy, but don't ever think having success on this one.
