i assume you did hold it for 4 seconds, cause that is what you have to do with ATX case...

Of course, this 4 second delay-behaviour can often be changed in the bios... (to an immediate power off)

They do if they are AT.
With ATX, the power switch is actually just a signal, and can even be generated or caught by software.
