Laptop timed boot

Hey guys, I want to set my laptop to boot when I wake up in the morning, just like I do my desktop. Unfortunately I can't find the option in my BIOS! I was wondering if anyone knew a way to work around this.

I use a DELL XPS system with bios revision A12 if that helps. Hope you guys can help me out!
 
If there is no feature for it in the bios then it won't support it. Which makes since for a laptop. That would require the laptop to use more power then normal while its "off". Not something most people want from there laptops.

But you can get a similar result to what you want. If its connected to a network then have the laptop set to Wake on LAN and set your PC to wkae the laptop when its turned on.
