Sometimes I have the need to turn off my laptop monitor instantly instead of waiting for about a minute or so...

I found this lil app that did just that:

instantly turning off ANY computer is raising the likelihood of damage dome to files and or the operating system.... be EXTREMELY careful when you use apps of the kind...in fact don't use them would be safest bet

dMog,

The software only turns off the Laptop's Monitor because in some laptops or maybe most laptops the option to turn off the monitor manually is not there,

So basically your laptop is still on just that the monitor is turned off and can be turned back on by pressing any key on the keyboard or mouse.

I possess an IBM T-42 which has this inbuilt option of switching off the monitor via Fn + F4.
