Meh. I would have been OK with the old body with new chips. More ports, better cooling. I mean, the exhaust and intake port are next to each other? Would it just suck in hot air?
 
No price increase is impressive. I'll be getting one of these eventually. I'll probably wait until after Christmas as I don't really have a pressing need at this point.

You shouldn't do that. Put it to sleep instead and turn it off once a month or two maybe.
Well since the M4 chip supposedly addresses the hardware vulnerabilities of the previous M chips, I may try sleep instead of turning it off every day.
 
This thing consumes virtually no power when idle. Why are people turning it off so often that they'd care where the power button is to turn it back on????
You still need to turn it on for the first time. Or the few times when you need to reset. It's a non-zero number of times we have to use the button. And also sometimes we do want to turn it off. I turn mine off once every month.

It's such a small amount of times that the location doesn't matter though is my point. If it was something you have to do often, I'd understand the complaints.
