Since it's a desktop I told the users that it's safe to power off the thing

I suffer from one of these unsolved quirks. Occasionally my machine will
shutdown correctly but will not power off. I have detected no
discernible pattern (or discerned no detectable pattern).
I power the machine off manually when the quirk occurs.

+1 - I have a win 8 vm that currently exhibits this lovely feature - i
boot the host, bring up the vm, log in, and get a black (blank) session
window. I can force it to shut down by selecting "shut down" for the
virtual machine and then closing the session window. I can also suspend
the machine through normal action function. But either resuming the
machine or shutting down and re-initializing brings the login and
post-login brings the black hole of nothing. I've been scratching my
head as to how this machine got into this state since it did seem to
work the first 5 or 6 times I brought it up. Virtual machines seem
(sometimes) to have their moments just as hosts do.
