That's an improvement, but I still prefer the original design. ;-) If we wanted to move Cancel to the opposite corner, we should do that for Cancel buttons in all alerts and dialogs (as the Amiga used to, for example), not just this one. Otherwise, just use the standard placement. Often it will not be true to say "Your system is ready to shut down": any inhibition checking -- e.g. "Save changes to Untitled before closing?" -- is done after you confirm the shutdown/logout/restart, not before. (Maybe we should change that, but that's a wider topic.)
I liked Duncan's suggestion for the text, and added in the "now" to the button. How's this? -- Martin
