Turning off the computer
It is a good idea to turn off your computer when you are not
using it for a while.
If you are using the computer for the first time, leave the
computer plugged into a power source (even though the
computer is off) to fully charge the main battery. With the
computer off, it may take up to three hours to recharge the
main battery.
When you power down the computer, you have three options
to choose from: Turn Off (or Shut down), Hibernate, and
Standby. Each option has its advantages.

Use the Shut down command if you are using the
Windows XP Professional operating system and are
connected to a domain server.

automatically return to where you left off.
