    Optional $200 dock with satisfyingly clicky lever mechanism that is activated from the front.

    They clearly want you to let this one running 24/7, or, can you turn it on using the keyboard and that low power BT thing?

    As long as your default mode is sleep it’d be ok. I touch my PCs power button only when it crashes so horribly that a forced shutdown is the only way out…

    It’s a bit of a bummer given the power of the machine it would be otherwise good in IT environments. The small size would allow a rack or stack of them. This one feature design choice makes that not possible. It’s on purpose.

      if it didn’t make us angry, and INFLUENCE OTHER BUSINESSES TO DO THE SAME REPUGNANT SHIT, we’d be buying it.

    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.
