because it is a lot easier, lol... and just cause you can
Maybe I am old school, but to me keyboard short cuts are always the fastest way to logging in/out or shutting down or rebooting.
I have too many wallpapers that I like and I cannot stand just one for a certain amount of time. So, to solve that, I use Wallpaper Master. I direct it to where I save my wallpapers and set it to switch wallpaper on every boot.
I don't reboot the machine often, or log off, but I use the shut down icon a lot. They just save time from having to go into the start menu and hit shutdown. Besides, I use the Windows 2000 log on, so you have to drop the menu down to select what you want.

alt + F4 to bring up the shutdown menu, alt + U to shut down. Takes .0002 nano seconds for me to do that (that was a hyperbole if you didn't catch that).
Rainmeter.
It monitors storage space on up to 5 drives (as long as they are C,D,E,F, and G)along with memory usage (virtual and physical) and network activity.
It also has a thing for the weather (It only has New York, Tamere, Tokyo, and London) and a news ticker. The other version of the main window on the right is a small bar that uses pie charts for drive usage.
Finally, there is the clock.
It doesn't come with any other skins, but I'm sure you may be able to find other add-ons for it somewhere.
You can download it here:

Physical memory is the memory you have in the memory slots on your motherboard. Virtual memory is a file known as a "paging file". It uses a portion of your HDD space (I have mine set to roughly 4.6 gb) and allows your computer to run with even a small bit of RAM installed. (I'm not sure about Mac or Linux having a paging file.)

physical memory is what you probably know as your RAM. Well virtual memory is what the computer uses wen it runs out of RAM memory, it uses a technique called paging, and uses the HDD as RAM. Obviously if u get to the stage were the computer starts to use ur HDD as RAM ur expierence on the computer will become much slower!!
im quite new at all this forum stuff. I hope i helped u a little bit!!

IDK, i dont think im old school and i definately prefer keyboard short cuts.
Do you do windows -> u -> u to shut down or is there a faster one?
