Why? Sleep/suspend on macs is incredibly good, and power usage rounds to zero.

  Because I like to turn off my desktop at night. I like to come back to a fresh start. I sometimes reboot just to get a clean slate.

    > Because I like to turn off my desktop at night Put simply, more people like the aesthetic of no visible power button than like the aesthetic of daily rebooting their computer. If I were you, and I really couldn’t let go of that, I’d put the Mac in sleep and have it scripted to restart at e.g. 6AM each day. You get the best of both worlds. Feel like you have a “fresh” Mac every morning. Let it do its updates and whatnot behind the scenes.

      The power button was already invisible when it was on the back.
