That little X in the upper right hand corner is a handy little button, isn't it? But it might not be the quickest way to close an application. If I have several programs open, and I want to close some of them without hovering my mouse cursor all over the screen, I just pop up the taskbar (found at the bottom of the screen), right click on the program icons I want to close, select "Close" from the menu, and blammo. Exit stage left!
