Opened my iBook G4 just purchased used from Amazon ( I know shoot me now!) do I have to wait for battery to run out? Can't get a curser just a spinning colorful circle making me dizzy!

This is the Mac equivalent of an hourglass. Try the key combination of CMD-OPTION-CTRL and the Eject key in the top right corner. If this does not shut down the computer, hold down the power button for about 7-10 seconds. The power button for this model is located on the top of the keyboard near the right speaker.

Thankyou so much! Got it turned off is there anything special I should do when I turn back on?

That's good to hear! Since the laptop is new you might want to set up a new user account, but you don't have to do anything special due to the shutdown.
