Mac Mini's are cool, and I appreciate that Apple has some of the most experienced and talented designers in the world... But they put the power switch on the bottom. You have to lift it up and turn it over to turn it on and off.

But once its on why would you ever turn it off? /s

Assuming the desktop takes the same power saving techniques from their laptops, there is no real reason to turn it off.
