"if I press the power off button on my computer it shut
down?"

Well, in most cases, if you press the "power off" button, the power goes
off...

Without power, most computers will have a hard time to do a clean shutdown.


Or, does your computer provide a delay when you push the "power off"
button? You push "power off" and the computer powers off a minute later? Is
this somehow configurable in your BIOS?

(I must admit I don't have the very latest computers myself, so there may
be some new hardware out there that I've not seen yet.)
