Likewise. My alarm was a playlist that would play through my speakers under the room's deck. My computer was in top, with the audio and power cables zip secured to prevent easy power loss.

Dang thing would go off, start getting louder (scripted for "gentle" wake-up), and I had to crawl out and onto the deck, log into my computer, and shut it off. ... And it was set to lock itself and start again in 10 minutes.

TL;DR: sleep inertia sucks.
