PowerOff tells the South Bridge of the X1000 (AMD SB600) to turn off the PSU.
It takes 4 seconds until the SB600 actually sends the signal to the PSU so
during that time it can be aborted with CTRL-C.
Because of the 4 second delay, either make sure you do not have any application
likely to be writing data to the harddisk or use 'Reboot FAST SYNC' to force any
cached/pending write to be committed to disk, e.g.:
RUN >NIL: PowerOff
Reboot FAST SYNC
or on a single line for FKey or as an Alias:
Reboot FAST SYNC `RUN >NIL: PowerOff`

V1.0 (05.04.2012) X1000 betatesters release

- Thanks to Darren Stevens for figuring out which register to poke
