To be fair, aren't those mini PCs meant for HTPCs/home servers? You're not really supposed to turn them off, and if you really want easy power button access you can just set it upside down. I'd say it's a good idea if you take into account that it's aimed at Apple customers who care more about "design" over usability. They truly "think different" over there.

"different" is just another word for "weird"

Honestly as infrequently as I turn my machines off this really doesn’t bother me. The mouse on the other hand….

Yeah, fuck that mouse, there's no excuse for that one.
