If I just walk away from my laptop, the internal power settings will put it in standby mode after a pre-determined time. So the button doesn't do anything for money that I can't already do for free. If it can't do a hard shut-down, it's worthless to me. Geek Junk. Why won’t it shut the computer all the way down?
