I saw the New Mac Mini on display (programming.dev)

I love the idea of it, and I love how tiny it is. Will probably get one when money isn’t so tight.

But I was curious if the power button was accessible without lifting it. And it genuinely isn’t. Why does Apple like shoving important IO and buttons underneath the device. Good thing it’s light?

Oh and a funny thing was the staff had to loosen its mount on the table so you could turn it on.

Placing the power button on the bottom is a genius move by Apple. It’s inconvenient, sure, but it wouldn't stop a single customer from buying this PC. And just look at how much people are discussing the new Mac Mini, all because of this power button.

I have a Mac mini and I think I've used the power button one time in the past year.
