Oh an Apple thread. More people angry at something they were never going to buy anyway.

I thought it was satire at first, because the magic mouse has a charging port on the bottom making it unusable when charging

Turns out its not ๐Ÿคก

More like laughing at what they were not going to buy anyway.

I'm still laughing at the mouse you can't use while it's charging

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 11 hours ago

True innovation tho. There was no other mouse you couldn't use while charging.

Excuse me. Some of us do buy Apple products. And there's nothing that comes close to the bargain price of the base model, so we laugh at it while buying it too.

I can get an I9 32gb 1Tb mini pc for under 500โ‚ฌ. Where is the bargain?

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 9 hours ago

I guess I'll be the exception as someone who does have a macmini because it is the best priced mini pc that can't be beat, and will likely get the base model for this too for the same reason.

But I still would prefer a power button in the front.

Gotta get the Apple haters to be their #1 advertisers for free.

Keep it up people. Apple did almost nothing to advertise this computer. You're the advertisement.
