I think for many people it will be a beautiful black cylinder on a cluttered desktop. For people who need to use expansions this will take up a significantly larger footprint than a machine that allows for internal expansion.
For those that put the machine under their desk it will just be a mess of cables and things to kick over.
Third parties are going to have a field day designing accessories to this that will do away with the clutter. A six pronged lightning plug that splits into a meta-rack monolithic black box. Done.
The whining about this product is expected but so misguided.
For those that put the machine under their desk it will just be a mess of cables and things to kick over.
