If only there were another way to digitally control a motherboard.

Yep, but as I said, it's about the network control service and not the LED bit itself.

They're allowing you to control it from an Android app.
It'd be _really_ interesting if they did it via the UEFI directly, since they have network access now.

The easy route is an I2C LED driver via SMBus, controlled via ACPI.

If only there was some built-in software to change these kinds of settings. A basic input/output system, if you will.
