  • HailVictory1776 : I've maybe had to touch the power switch of my Mac mini maybe twice in 3 years

Apple stuck the Mac mini power button on the bottom

Don't expect to fit the new M4 Mac mini into too tight a space because you're going to have to tip it to reach underneath every time you need to switch it on.

If the position of the charging port on the Magic Mouse isn't the questionable design choice it's been called, the New Mac mini power button might be. As pointedly not shown by Apple in its launch video or new ad — the Mac mini power button is underneath the device.

As can be seen on the online store's page for the new M4 Mac mini, the button is not on the very base of the model. It is, though, underneath it, raised off the ground only by the cooling vent.

Another banger design choice from Steve Tim Apple :marseyclapping:

I read about this, apparently the charging port is deliberately at the bottom so that you don't keep it plugged in always. It was a deliberately aesthetic choice because they couldn't let people see their wireless mouse could work plugged in and always used wirelessly

It looks like my hand would start cramping in hours.

I need a big fat hog of a mouse. My hands are used to big fat hogs.

I don't know anyone who uses Apple computers that uses Apple peripherals. The apple peripherals only exist for fan boys and people with more money than sense

Then no one would have bitched about it and they would have lost out on millions in free advertising.
