You can turn the device. And how often do you want to actually want to turn the device off from the box itself?
Right, try turning it with a dozen cables plugged into it. I'm sure we all allow enough slack in our cables to easily spin our machines around 180 degrees.
How often would I actually want to turn the device off from the box itself? Well, when it locks up and won't restart, mostly.So hardly ever then.
LOLSteve de MenaHow do you connect multiple monitors to it? Do the Thunderbolt ports double as DisplayPorts?Alan Baker
Yup. But if you think that means you can use them for one or the other, but not both at the same time, you're wrong.
Sounds like there are some odd custom non-upgradeable GPU hocus pocus going on underneath this machine Of course a year from now there will be better models and you'll have to buy those to get the new features as this has no upgrade-ability.
