Hah, Tim Cook decision pretty much sums it up; its the kind of thing that wouldn't have lasted 5 seconds when placed in front of Jobs (although there is a strong chance Jobs would have demanded his own nonsensical addition/subtraction to the design).
- kranke155 2y agoYeah he likely would have said no ports, or lets have only one port, or he would have demanded that the Mac mini has the dimensions of some multiple of pi… Nobody’s perfect.
- mullingitover 2y agoJobs would've thrown it out the window, and verbally abused the intern who brought it in, because it has ports in the front. He would've kept the power button on the bottom, though.
- kranke155 2y agoPorts on the front are 100% the right decision though. Thats the thing. You're right, he would've, but also he stopped a lot of good decisions from happening because it just wasn't to his taste. So like, power button on the bottom isn't the end of the world.
- marshray 2y agoJobs would have removed the power button entirely. And then when there's a fault requiring a hard reset to fix you have to insert a bent paperclip into a tiny unlabeled hole on the bottom, or spell out a message in morse code by unplugging and re-plugging the power cord with some special timing. (This is not sarcasm)
- vunderba 2y agoWas Jobs in charge when they decide to place the power connector on the bottom of the "magic mouse"? But it's fine because it can fit in a manila envelope.
- alcidesfonseca 2y agoJobs would have kept the button on the bottom, as it's not the proper way to use a computer. Instead, he would have put motion/light sensors on the screen, so it would automatically wake up when you are sitting in front of it. Macs don't shutdown, they just go to sleep and wake up when you need them.
