This only works on laptops. To get the same dialog on a desktop Mac, press Control-Eject. On desktops, the power button instantly puts the computer to sleep.

Actually, that behavior can be changed in Energy Saver. On non-laptops, there's an option to have the Power button Sleep the computer - just uncheck that option. Now, the Power button will function the way it does on laptops; it'll bring up the Sleep, Restart, Shutdown or Cancel dialog.
