You can make it so you just hit the power button to shut
down. Right click on you desktop and click properties
then choose the tab 'Screen Saver' and then click on the
button named 'Power'. Then click on the tab named
Advanced, at the botton where it says 'When I press the
power button on my computer:' select shutdown in the drop
down box below that.

Right click on a empty part of the desktop -> new -> text
document -> name it shutdown.bat -> open it and type
(without the quotes) "shutdown -s" -> save and exit.

If you want to restart replace the -s with -r
If you want to logof replace the -s with -l

Hope this helps.
