mac mini - startup remote

[stevomacca]

Does the apple remote work to startup the mac mini?
Or is there an alternative that will start it?
Thanks

I believe it can be awoken out of sleep mode by pressing play or menu. My iMac does it.

It's can't be started from the remote as you need to power it on from the machine, as andrewrunagall says, it can be started from sleep with the remote.
