we all have those computers for school and i'm actually on one right now and when they aren't looking i shut theres off so this will help because they cant stop me. so thanks
when i want to turn off my macbook pro, I just press power on/off button and then Return. Thats still 2 buttons. Your way I would have to press 4 buttons. But nonetheless, nice video. Now i know how to restart my macbook quickly. thanks!
@kyledoherty - there is one thing that's really easy to do with windows -- wipe it out and install ANY linux variant. you'll never face the evils from redmond....
Way to stretch a 15 second video to 3 min! Also, saying out loud that you are "setting up a wide shot" and "about to do a jump cut" is really stellar. There's 3 min I'll never get back.
I think I remember reading that in either the manual or some Apple tech doc, but since I never use the remote on my MacBook I completely forgot about this one. Good catch.
BS a thousand times, and it's Mac, not MAC (Mac is not an acronym, it's short for Macintosh). On a "Mac", most users use shortcut key commands because it's easier to do on a Mac. The finger ergonomics are much easier to use as opposed to a Windows PC. That's all... using key commands is by far, easier and quicker than using a mouse.
u know u can also log out with the command: SHIFT>COMMAND>Q

2:40 to save you watching endless 3 minutes, just jump to the overview.
Or ctrl + alt + cmd + eject to shut your mac down :-)

So confusing. So lame.
Windows keyboard shutdown makes more sense. Easier.

Actually, pressing the Power Button and Return or Enter is faster. The Shutdown button is the default, so, pressing Return/Enter selects it.

If you hold down the alt key while clicking on Sleep, Restart, Shutdown and Logout, it doesn't prompt you with any question.

The tech note I linked to states this should work in any version of Mac OS X and even Mac OS 9.
