Or 3D print a stand to keep it sideways.
Or not buy it
At least it does mean your cat can never turn off your pc ever again with this
Computer so tiny cat knocks it off the desk instead
I just stuck a Belgium post WW2 MP helmet on mine, pretty effective at keeping my power button safe. Just like how judging frok the dent it kept some Belgian from getting their head caved in by a beer bottle.
Now you can slam the top of the machine to boot it up
Apple insider are already framing this as not a design flaw but an advantage somehow
it opens up a whole new surface for things. Soon there will be a dozen USB C ports on the bottom and you'll need to buy special apple right angle cables to access them that they charge $30 per 1m cable.
The have active electronics in them so that if any non-apple right angle connectors are used it limits them to usb 1.0 speeds and 5v 0.5A power delivery. It's for your safety.
Trust us. We're THE design company!
Yeah.. I used to sell Apple gear.
When Apple announced the Mighty mouse 20 years ago, everyone was super excited. There wasn't much info, and we were almost wondering if it was a touch sensitive button on it.
What we got though was a mouse which gave you RSI any time you clicked the right button.
Now, I have a Mac Studio. Every PC has the power button on the top or front. This guy? Nah, lets put it on the back! And the M2 is a professional machine, so lets ship with 8GB ram only.. And MAKE IT SHARED VIDEO MEMORY!
And lets stick an ARM chip with no raytracing on it, because thats what people crave
This is more like a "power button" in that case lol
A power bottom?
Ah too big
excellent marketing strategy to get us talking about their stuff that would otherwise get almost completely under our radar.
i mean fuck where the power button of a product ill probably never need is.
Oh an Apple thread. More people angry at something they were never going to buy anyway.
I thought it was satire at first, because the magic mouse has a charging port on the bottom making it unusable when charging
Turns out its not 🤡
More like laughing at what they were not going to buy anyway.
I'm still laughing at the mouse you can't use while it's charging
True innovation tho. There was no other mouse you couldn't use while charging.
Excuse me. Some of us do buy Apple products. And there's nothing that comes close to the bargain price of the base model, so we laugh at it while buying it too.
I can get an I9 32gb 1Tb mini pc for under 500€. Where is the bargain?
