While its more expensive, one could use a gumstix, an older iPAQ flashed with Linux, or even a wrt access point flashed with openwrt or something similar. Then compile/install the ARM version of nut.

I'm not sure you'll find nut there, but Debian maintains an ARM repository of each of its releases. If its there, one could unpack the .deb package and install nut manually.

A small linux box that consumes very little power is far more efficient than using an entire PC only to send a simple trigger.
