Here is another Keyboard Tricks for you, I didn't shut down my laptop when i am done at office. I hibernate my laptop so that i can open my laptop at home and start working where i left my work or next day start the work from same place where i left. In Windows XP to hibernate you have to do Start - > Shut Down and then select Hibernate from drop down.
But, sometimes we need to shutdown and some times to restart. In my previous article i post Keyboard Shortcuts For Facebook and Usefull Windows keyboard Shortcuts. So now here is Keyboard Shortcut to Hibernate, Shutdown, Restart and Going To Sleep mode
Actually, before I do that, I'd better explain the Windows Key (referred to later in this tip as WIN). Look at the bottom row of your keyboard. See that key with the Windows logo between CTRL and ALT? That's the WIN key.
Okay, I'm done with the digressions. Now on to the original question: What are Vista's equivalents?
As with XP, this is really about manipulating the Start menu with the keyboard. You press the Windows key to bring up the menu. But thanks to Vista's search box, pressing an alphanumeric key won't help here. You need to use arrow keys--at least at first.
Hibernate: shutdown -h
Then press ENTER.

Going into Sleep mode is pretty easy:
Press WIN, the RIGHT ARROW, then ENTER.
All the other options require you to press WIN, then press the RIGHT ARROW three times. What you press next depends on what you want to do:
Shutdown: ENTER, or U
Reboot: R
Hibernate: H
By the way, once you've pressed WIN, you can use the arrow keys to navigate all over the Start menu. Give it a try.
