I'd write the guy and ask him if he can ONLY shut down Windows with the 
power button, or if it's possible to do a Start Menu > Shut Down > Shut 
Down.  Holding the power button down will shut down my L50 and L70 in 3 
seconds or so, and I'd assume it'd be the same for the L100 and L110.  You 
can set the button to put you into hibernation too as I recall.

But if the system will only shut down from Windows with the power button, 
I'd guess it's a Windows problem, and not the Lib's problem.  There's 
probably a DOS utility to shut down the system, but as far as I know, 
powering down from DOS with the power button is the standard procedure.

If he says that Windows won't power the system down, you can probably 
reformat and re-install Windows, and it may fix the problem.  Maybe ask the 
guy if he's tried that.

Matt
