Are you guys really using a command to shut down a computer?

Because you can do the same with Windows, but nobody uses it because it is just not convenient to use commands for that.

shutdown /s

    Yeah, you can even throw a /f in there to force close all apps so it will kill everything and go nighty night. I used to use it with /t command if I wanted to download something while I was out but not have the PC run all day.

    That's not the best way to turn your PC off but hell half the time I just murder mine by holding down the power button anyways. As long as you're not being crazy shutting her down in the middle of some data operations you'll be fine.
