What Koasati said will work! You could also bring up the Windows Task Manager and shutdown the computer from there. Hold down the Ctrl+Alt+Delete keys.

What Hankers said will work! You can also throw the thing out the window.

What Sleeping Dragon said will work! Just make sure you unplug it and open the window first to save on costly home repairs.

What Koasati, Hankers, and SD will work.
In addition, there are a number of docklets that allow you to shut down windows. I like SysCmd: https://www.wincustomize.com/ViewSkin.aspx?SID=1&SkinID=2954&LibID=29 but there are aother you might like. Search the WC OD gallery for more.
https://www.wincustomize.com/ViewSkin.aspx?SID=1&SkinID=8977&LibID=29 or https://www.wincustomize.com/ViewSkin.aspx?SID=1&SkinID=8403&LibID=29 look OK too.
