5 days since the M4 Mac Mini launched. How has the power button impacted your life?

It's standing on something smaller so I can always reach it. But the mini is definately much too light. It already fell down twice from my "desk". Thankfully I have a thick carpet or some cables stopped it from touching the ground.

Yeah it being so light the bigger issue now is with the two ports on the front. You have to hold the Mac mini down in order to plug anything in.

Can't plug anything in without holding it down and also can't turn it on without lifting it up.

A+ level trolling from Apple.

Had a friend text me today that he is buying something to place underneath the Mac mini so that it won't slide when plugging in his USB drives.

remarkable trolling by apple.

I have had M4 mini for almost a year, never really thought about it. Forgot the button was in the bottom till I got notified from this thread.

Have the M4 mini for 3 months now and it is my first mini. Not at all an issue for me to turn it on daily.

I elevated mine with an improvised pedestal and happily keep pressing the button every day )

The button is a love letter to the apple mouse's charging port.
