lol ... this must be a simple question.

With w2k I choose shutdown from the dialog and expected the machine to shut off.
It stayed on.
Do I always have to hit the power button?

I'm so used to having my machine go off automatically that this is starting to bother me. Is it just my hardware or is this standard operating procedures for M$?

mac user can't you tell

Thanks again
