Re: Configure power button to shutdown



I asked a friend very familiar with Apple hardware [ http://jocr.org ] and he 
said...

"you can map the On/off button it has already functions like sleep/awake, but 
no[t] on older machines [like the G4].. "

So he thinks it's not possible; I would add that if it were, by chance, you 
could trigger this within deep functionality of open firmware or the boot-
loaders
