Vista Tutorial - inconsistent behavior

In powershell console, I typed "calc", then "windows caculator"
appear, then powershell immediately returned and I could type other
commands, though "windows caculator" are still running.

But if I wrote the following code in VS, I must manually close
"windows caculator" first, the Main function return.

So, why the behaviors are inconsistent?

using ....
namespace Host3 {
class Program {
static void Test2() {
Runspace runspace = RunspaceFactory.CreateRunspace();
runspace.Open();
Pipeline pipeline = runspace.CreatePipeline("calc");
pipeline.Invoke();
runspace.Close();
}
static void Main(string[] args) {
Test2();
}
}
}

you're creating a pipeline that is going to keep waiting for output
from the command, because rather than just spawning a process you're
holding open the pipeline for it.

The same thing happens if you type this in at the prompt:

calc | select *

Your command won't return until calc.exe exits because the pipeline is
waiting for objects.

value, so host return to prompt quickly.
but do you know how to config and make the host must wait "calc"
return?
thx
